1.1 Adjust the
intensity of family planning promotion activities, in accordance with the
local situation, e.g., give priority to increasing such activities in areas
where fertility remains significantly higher than the target.
1.2 Expedite family
planning activities in areas where birth rates remain high, e.g., certain
areas of the South and the Northeast, through provision of free services and
through special campaigns designed in harmony with local cultures and values.
1.3 Heighten the
efficacy of family planning service delivery and encourage gender equality in
sharing the responsibility for family planning practices, enabling families to
determine the number of children best for their situation; then support
birth-spacing techniques as individually required. This will require
monitoring systems to ensure clients’ continual awareness and attention, and
evaluation to determine the efficiency and impact of each family planning
practice implemented.
1.4 Campaign
continually and promote public awareness of the benefits of appropriate family
size, through the use of quality mass media approaches accessible to all
people, and the use of languages easily understood by all target groups.
1.5 Promote private
sector involvement in social projects; set up revolving funds for family
planning and the promotion of quality of life in less developed communities.
In this endeavour, the public sector selects the communities and provides a
certain budget to the revolving funds while the communities themselves manage
the funds.
