A Comparative Study of Family Planning Service Statistics Systems in the ESCAP Region. Asian Population Studies Series No. 15.
United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific, Bangkok (Thailand).
This monograph contains a study conducted by the Population Division of the United Nations Economic and Social Committee for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP). The document is designed to aid policy-makers, administrators and evaluation personnel in family planning programs in the ESCAP region, primarily; and researchers working in the field of family planning program evaluation. The main objective of the study is to examine the existing family planning service statistics systems in the region from the points of view of uniformity in the definitions of key terms and concepts used in program evaluation and the capabilities of the systems to generate and process reliable data required for program evaluation and monitoring. Most of the data were gathered through the administration of an open-ended questionnaire and through personal visits to the study countries by the staff of the ESCAP secretariat. Contents written in this report include topics related to the main objective of the study. There are ten annexes that contain data, records, and reports. A short bibliography concludes the document.
