Determinants of Family Planning Programme

The success of the family planning programme in a developing country is dependent upon multi-dimensional factors. When a country is developed, negative factors of family planning get reduced  in number. On the other hand, in a developing country social backwardness and many cultural barriers are detrimental to the progress of the family planning programme. The success of a family planning programme in a developing country depends upon :
  1. the type of management including change agents, training, motivation, efficiency and availability, 
  2. resources available for contraceptives and medicines, 
  3. vehicles and transport facilities available on a regular and timely basis, 
  4. out-reach of the programme through multiple channels including Government and NGOs,
  5. strategies effectively used for the promotion of the programme including IEC programme, incentives, disincentives, etc.,
  6. developmental priorities given for the education of females, 
  7. health programmes and applied nutrition programmes, 
  8. involvement of community and their participation in creating social support, etc. 
These are only a few determinants of the family planning programmes but many more factors at micro-level are for the success of the family Planning Programme.
