More than 220 million women have an unmet need for modern family planning and more than 100 million women cite method-related reasons for non-use, underscoring the need for new and improved methods and greater method choice.
PSI is partnering with WomanCare Global, Evofem, ICRW and Every1Mobile to support women-initiated contraceptive methods through USAID’s Expanding Effective Contraception Options project. EECO is designed to support the introduction of five new contraceptive methods that will address method-related reasons for non-use and better meet the reproductive health needs of women and girls.
