Driving Toward Dramatic PPFP Uptake: Pathfinder International’s Uganda Family Planning Activity

Postpartum family planning (PPFP) is an evidence-based program intervention essential for ensuring the health and well-being of mothers and their babies. In Uganda, each year approximately 15% of women of reproductive age have recently given birth and 12% are postpartum but not using a modern method of contraception. This presents a huge opportunity to invest in PPFP, especially in areas where a large proportion of women of reproductive age are postpartum but not using modern contraception.
