This paper on" Perceptions on family planning in the context of socio-economic and cultural values in selected EGA member States" has been prepared at the request of the 8th Session of the Joint Conference of African Planners, Statisticians and Demographers in 1994. The purpose of the paper is to analyze various factors that contributed to the general resistance to the acceptance of modern family planning in the 1960s and 1970s, the subsequent changing attitudes, and how to translate the observed changes into effective programmes, especially at grassroots.
It appears appropriate and logical for the paper first to give a general overview of perceptions on population and family planning since the 1960s to the present and then move on next to some selected country examples before the discussion of obstacles in implementation of family planning programmes. A summary and recommendations are presented at the end of the paper.
