Book excerpt: Use of modern contraceptive methods is rising in low-resource settings such as Guatemala, though there still exists an unmet need for contraception. Access to highly effective options has been the focus of many advocacy campaigns. However, better understanding is needed of what factors guide womenu2019s selection of contraceptive methods. Previous research has examined male partnersu2019 influence on womenu2019s use of family planning methods, but less is known about male partnersu2019 roles in method selection. With the goal of addressing a gap in existing data to improve advocacy campaigns around contraceptive use, we conducted qualitative interviews with women in a rural Guatemalan community to understand the social relationship dynamics influencing womenu2019s contraceptive decision making. Fourteen current implant users and fourteen current injectable or combined oral contraceptive (COC) users were recruited from a community-based non-profit organization that provides family planning services to rural indigenous Maya communities. Participants completed a verbally administered survey and semi-structured qualitative interview, which explored their experiences with all forms of modern contraceptives, the role of influential figures in their decision-making, and their ideal method of decision-making with male partners. Individuals who commonly played a role in womenu2019s decisions to use contraception and method choice included husbands, mothers-in-law, mothers, sisters and sisters-in-law, and other women from the community. Most women felt that each member of the couple should have equal weight in decisions about family planning, yet many participants expressed that their own experience of the decision-making process differed from their ideal. Several participants stated that even though their husbands were the primary decision makers regarding family planning, they decided to use contraception despite male partner opposition, often in secret. Participants commonly cited the disproportionate burden women bear of ensuring their childrenu2019s well-being as a rationale for serving as primary or equal partners in family planning choices. Qualitative interviews revealed a tension between ideal circumstances of decision-making and reported experiences. These findings argue for increased educational campaigns focused on men. Future efforts should also focus on helping women advocate for their preferences by teaching partner negotiation skills and shared decision-making counseling to encourage spousal support of contraceptive decisions.

Book excerpt: The authors of this book address the major issues involved in developing and evaluating community-based delivery (CBD) healthcare services administered by nonmedical workers in developing countries. Ranging from a general discussion of integrated community-based programs to the prescription of dose regimens that nonmedical personnel can use in field situations, the contributions cover such topics as nutrition intervention, antihelminthics distribution, oral rehydration therapy, and the efficacy of existing programs designed to train those who administer these services.
