Resumo

Background In Senegal, the absence of a well-functioning family planning (FP) product supply chain has acted as a significant supply-side barrier and contributed to Senegal’s low contraceptive prevalence rate (CPR) (12.3% in 2010) and high unmet need for FP among married women (29%). Recurrent FP product stockouts at nearly 80% of public service delivery points (SDPs) continue to hinder the government’s ability to achieve its goal of doubling CPR to 27% by 2015.
