The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), formerly the United Nations Fund for Population Activities, is a UN agency aimed at improving reproductive and maternal health worldwide. The agency began operations in 1969 as the United Nations Fund for Population Activities under the administration of the United Nations Development Fund (currently: UN Development Program ). In 1971 it was placed under the authority of the United Nations General Assembly. Its name was changed to the United Nations Population Fund in 1987. However, the shortened term of UNFPA has been retained. There are two flags used; a logo on white and a white logo on orange.
