Family Planning Programmes Review


According to the UN family planning allows individuals and couples to anticipate and attain their desired number of children and the spacing and timing of their births. It is achieved through use of contraceptive methods and the treatment of involuntary infertility. A woman’s ability to space and limit her pregnancies has a direct impact on her health and well-being as well as on the outcome of each pregnancy.1 In this body of work I will analyse and discuss examples of the governments of specific countries which have succeeded in their methods of family planning. I examine the public rationales for the reasons behind the efforts of these countries to curb family planning, as well as the social, economic and political background of these family planning activities. Moreover I evaluate the differences in the total fertility rates after the governments put family planning methods into place and I determine whether or not the government used any coercive measures. I chose to base my case studies on specific countries which have managed to reduce their fertility and birth rates through successful and innovative family planning programs.
