OUR NETWORKS

Second Round Training on CBM on Quality of Care and Informed Choice in Family Planning
The family planning program in India has long been riddled with concerns regarding quality of care and informed choice in family planning services, especially female sterilization. Even 10 years after the Supreme Court ordered the Government of India to stringently implement guidelines for performing sterilization operations, problems related to poor quality of care, poor execution of family planning training programmes and lack of proper counselling with regard to modern methods of contraception continue to plague the delivery of family planning services. |
