The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) coordinated efforts to integrate RH into contingency planning for the 2003 Iraq crisis and the 2003 regional response for displaced populations in West Africa. Using UNFPA's network of country offices in the Middle East, staff developed logistics plans, conducted workshops and pre-positioned RH supplies. Though refugee movements did not occur, the contingency planning enhanced the response capacity of UNFPA offices and made it possible to rapidly provide assistance inside Iraq. In West Africa, multi-country workshops and follow-up resulted in country-level and regional action plans useful during the renewed crises of 2003; scarce funding, however, limited their full implementation. UNFPA's experiences show that contingency planning requires committing resources for crises, some of which will not occur; new staff skills; and follow-up. Moreover, RH is considered by some to be additional to the core elements of contingency planning. RH's political sensitivity, particularly with certain donors, further complicated integrated planning.
联合国人口基金（人口基金）协调各方努力，将生殖健康纳入2003年伊拉克危机的应急规划以及2003年西非流离失所人口区域应对行动之中。人口基金利用其在中东的国家办事处网络，工作人员制定了后勤计划，举办了讲习班，并预先储备了生殖健康用品。尽管没有出现难民流动情况，但应急规划提高了人口基金各办事处的应对能力，并使得在伊拉克境内迅速提供援助成为可能。在西非，多国讲习班及后续行动产生了在2003年再次发生危机期间有用的国家和区域行动计划；然而，资金短缺限制了这些计划的全面实施。人口基金的经验表明，应急规划需要为危机投入资源，其中一些危机可能不会发生；需要新的工作人员技能；还需要后续行动。此外，一些人认为生殖健康是应急规划核心要素之外的内容。生殖健康的政治敏感性，特别是对某些捐助方而言，使综合规划更加复杂。
