I am interested in hearing from those of you who work primarily on women's reproductive health and rights globally whether you think the "walk the talk" at home argument holds water?
Would the United States be able to be a better defender of women's rights abroad if it set high standards for the same at home? How do do those realities affect this country's actions overseas or the ability of women's rights organizations that are US based to be successful in their work with partners in the rest of the world?

One tiny thing the U.S. could do would be to cooperate with the world in funding the United Nations Population Fund. We have not done so since 2002. Private citizens have at least made an effort to fill the gap through 34 Million Friends of UNFPA, (www.34millionfriends.org) of which I am cofounder.
