This book was released on 2016-04-11 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The evaluation of reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health (RMNCH) by the Disease Control Priorities, Third Edition (DCP3) focuses on maternal conditions, childhood illness, and malnutrition. Specifically, the chapters address acute illness and undernutrition in children, principally under age 5. It also covers maternal mortality, morbidity, stillbirth, and influences to pregnancy and pre-pregnancy. Volume 3 focuses on developments since the publication of DCP2 and will also include the transition to older childhood, in particular, the overlap and commonality with the child development volume. The DCP3 evaluation of these conditions produced three key findings: 1. There is significant difficulty in measuring the burden of key conditions such as unintended pregnancy, unsafe abortion, nonsexually transmitted infections, infertility, and violence against women. 2. Investments in the continuum of care can have significant returns for improved and equitable access, health, poverty, and health systems. 3. There is a large difference in how RMNCH conditions affect different income groups; investments in RMNCH can lessen the disparity in terms of both health and financial risk.

Book excerpt: The Bank should strengthen its use of international comparisons and trend analysis rather than increasing its use of target setting; the use of demographic and health surveys should be the rule, not the exception, in Bank population and health projects; and more attention should be given to program- level than to project- level performance.
Download or read book A Review of the HHS Family Planning Program written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-09-07 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Review of the HHS Family Planning Program provides a broad evaluation of the Title X family planning program since its establishment in 1970. The program successfully provides family planning services to its target audience of low-income individuals, but there is room for improvement. While the program's core goals are apparent, a secondary set of changing priorities has emerged without a clear, evidence-based strategic process. Also, funding for the program has increased in actual dollars, but has not kept pace with inflation or increased costs. Several aspects of the program's structure could be improved to increase the ability of Title X to meet the needs of its target population. At the same time, the extent to which the program meets those needs cannot be assessed without a greater capacity for long-term data collection. A Review of the HHS Family Planning Program recommends several specific steps to enhance the management and improve the quality of the program, as well as to demonstrate its direct contribution to important end results, such as reducing rates of unintended pregnancy, cervical cancer, and infertility. The book will guide the Office of Family Planning toward improving the effectiveness of the program. Other parties who will find the research and recommendations valuable include programs receiving Title X funding from the Office of Family Planning, policy makers, researchers, and professional organizations.
Download or read book Assessing Disparities in Major Family Planning Indicators by Marital Status written by Caleb Irvine and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background: The indicators of modern contraceptive use and demand for family planning satisfied with modern methods are used to measure access to sexual and reproductive health services, but international estimates of these indicators are often restricted to married/in-union women, or else only highlight the value among all women in aggregate. This paper presents international estimates of these indicators disaggregated by marital status, allowing for the identification of disparities and deficits between groups that likely face distinct obstacles and stigmas related to sexual and reproductive healthcare. This paper also presents a sensitivity analysis aimed at assessing the potential for bias across marital status exhibited by the standard operationalized definition of having a need for family planning. Methods: Data on contraceptive use and need for family planning were extracted separately by marital status from 872 surveys conducted in 160 countries and territories since 1970. Variations in survey questions and definitions of modern versus traditional methods were adjusted via crosswalking as necessary. Indicators were modeled by-age using a Spatiotemporal Gaussian Process Regression to generate comprehensive time series estimates for 204 countries and territories from 1970 to 2019. Sensitivity analyses leveraged available microdata to perform counterfactual re-extractions of surveys to determine the proportion of contraceptive users who satisfy the current criteria for having a need for family planning. Results: Age-standardized global modern contraceptive prevalence in 2019 was 53.9% (53.0-54.8%) for married/in-union women and 24.1% (23.3-24.9%) for unmarried women. Modern contraceptive prevalence for ages 15-49 in 2019 ranged from 0.2% (0.1-0.4%) among unmarried women in Afghanistan to 92.2% (90.1-93.8%) among married/in-union women in China. Age-standardized global demand for family planning satisfied with modern methods in 2019 was 72.3% (71.5-73.1%) for married/in-union women and 81.6% (80.8-82.5%) for unmarried women. Demand satisfied in ages 15-49 in 2019 ranged from 4.3% (3.3-5.6%) among married/in-union women in Somalia to 97.6% (96.6-98.3%) among unmarried women in Bangladesh. Sensitivity analyses found large differences by marital status in the age-standardized proportion of reversible contraceptive users otherwise meeting the definition of having a need for family planning, with global 2019 values of 84.0% (82.9-84.8%) for married/in-union women and only 15.4% (13.0-17.8%) for unmarried women. Interpretation: Significant disparities exist in family planning indicators across both geography and marital status. Interestingly, while unmarried women exhibit lower by-age rates of modern contraceptive use, in most regions they also experience higher levels of demand for family planning satisfied with modern methods. However, lower proportions of unmarried reversible contraceptive users found to otherwise meet the criteria of having a need for family planning suggest that the need for family planning indicator may have differential sensitivity across marital status, resulting in underestimates of unmet need among unmarried women. In addition to expanding investments in sexual and reproductive health services in developing contexts, the results of this study suggest that additional research into potential adjustments to standard family planning indicators is warranted in order to increase ascertainment of unmet need among unmarried women.

This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The collaborative efforts of ColombiaA's Department of National Planning (DNP) and the World Bank has produced the National Evaluation System of Public Sector Performance (SYNERGY). Put in place by the Special Division for Evaluation in DNP, this system has been designed and implemented to change the public sector from an inward-looking, process-oriented body (which sometimes restrains economic and social progress) into a more dynamic, results-oriented partner of the community and private sector in development. This report explores the critical factors in making SYNERGY a successful evaluation system. Such factors include ways of making it an effective management tool, promoting civil society participation by focusing on results for people and leveraging on their energy and resource, defining a constructive learning process for implementation, and providing an enabling environment for a results-oriented public sector.
