A 20-year action plan for cutting the rate of world population growth
is expected to win wide approval today in Cairo.
Delegates at the UN-sponsored conference on population completed final talks on the plan Monday.
The document is non-binding,
but it will serve as a guideline for countries and donor states
that fund health care and family planning programmes.
The world population of 5.7 billion currently is growing at more than 90 million a year.
