“Mosher of the Population Research Institute called the report an ‘agenda-driven document, premised on the myth of over-population’ and said most people in the countries the UNFPA is active in do not want the services and see them as not empowering but enslaving. ‘Recent surveys reveal that the majority of women there are offended by and reject Western-led reproductive health campaigns, regard reproductive health as the antithesis of empowerment,’ Mosher said.”

“Steven W, Mosher, president of the Population Research Institute, presented the results of a survey done in Ghana on health care services. The survey showed the people’s highest priority was for malaria treatment and eradication. The second most pressing need was for information about natural family planning. The very last need cited was for ‘reproductive health’ — contraception, sterilization and abortion.”

“The Population Research Institute (PRI) unveiled highly credible evidence that the United Nations Population Fund has been a partner in mainland China’s notorious coercive population control programs, despite years of denials .… Steven Mosher, president of PRI, said evidence contradicts claims that the UN’s population controllers only go to regions where the communist’s ‘one-child’ policy has been suspended and where coercive ‘family planning’ has ended.”

“I’m very ambivalent about President Bush’s trip to China because, first of all, China is one of the principal supporters of terrorist regimes that … harbor terrorists that attack the United States.’ Mosher says. ‘And while China itself doesn’t harbor terrorists, it gives support and aid and comfort to the Taliban, including arms and military communications systems.”’

“Steven Mosher, president of Population Research Institute, testified at the hearing, along with the lead investigator of a PRI-sponsored investigation of operations of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) in China.”

“Steven Mosher, of the Population Research Institute points out that the UNFPA report is troubling in its emphasis on ‘targets’ for contraceptive use. Originally set at the UNFPA’s 1994 International Conference of Population and Development in Cairo, Egypt, to ‘help slow population growth and reduce the future size of world population,’ Mosher says ‘such targets constitute another reason why the organization should be denied US funding.”

“The Population Research Institute has confirmed that operatives working for the United Nations Population Fund are on the ground in Afghanistan, and have been distributing abortion devices and chemicals — disguised in kits marked for safe delivery — in Afghan refugee camps in Pakistan and Iran.”

“Can we trust an organization that supports coercive population-control programs in China and elsewhere and advocates numerical targets for contraception? More to the point, should we be funding it? The answer is obviously no. Instead of increasing funding for population — control programs, we should cut it to zero — now.”

“According to Mosher, UNFPA agents distribute abortifacient medication and chemical products, which they present as medicines, among Afghan refugees in Pakistani and Iranian camps. PRI reported that the Afghan refugees, the vast majority of whom are Muslims, reject the offer. Mosher added that the massive abortifacient campaign recalls another of similar characteristics launched in Kosovo among women victims of Slobodan Milosevic’s repressive regime. Women in Pristina described the UNFPA campaign as ‘a real genocide.’”

“British parliamentarians yesterday heard evidence of United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) complicity in coercive population control. Steven Mosher, president of the Population Research Institute and a world authority on China’s one-child policy, addressed a briefing in the House of Lords, where he detailed a recent investigation proving that population control is as coercive in UNFPA’s so-called voluntary programme counties as it is elsewhere in China. Mr. Mosher also explained that his negative opinion of China’s one-child policy of forced abortions was formed prior to his adoption of pro-life and religious convictions, and originates from his findings as the first American social scientist to do field research in China since the 1949 Communist revolution.”
