Recognizing that family planning interventions are not implemented in isolation and that documentation of high-impact practices is critical to successful family planning programs, funding for technical support for knowledge management is crucial to ensure that organizations can commit time and resources to share their experiences. Too often, lessons learned are not shared in other geographical settings, which is a missed opportunity as these real-time experiences can help others to capitalize on designing and strengthening their own programs.
“Pakistan Family Planning Insights: Ten Years Plus One” is an eleven-year (2011–2021) health systems analysis of the performance, governance, and accountability of family planning at the federal and provincial levels. The USAID-funded Global Health Supply Chain Program-Procurement and Supply Management (GHSC-PSM) project, managed by Chemonics International Inc., took the initiative to analyze the cLMIS data, along with other national data sets including district health information system (DHIS), lady health worker (LHW) management information system, 2017 census data, Pakistan Demographic and Health Survey (PDHS 2012 and 2017), Pakistan Maternal Mortality Survey 2019 (PMMS), and Induced Abortions and Unintended Pregnancies in Pakistan, 2012.
