Investments in Family Planning will Stimulate Socio-economic Development in Africa
12 January 2012

This policy brief summarizes recently published evidence on the development benefits of Family Planning (FP) that could be used to advocate for stronger political commitment and financial investments for FP programmes in the region. The evidence is mostly drawn from the Lancet’s July 2012 special issue on FP, the Guttmacher Institute and UNFPA’s 2012 Adding it Up report, and recent research conducted by AFIDEP.
