Choices in Family Planning: Informed and Voluntary Decision Making

This is the first module in the "Realizing Rights in Sexual and Reproductive Health Services" tool kit series. It is designed to help reproductive health service providers and others acquire a deeper understanding of the elements of informed and voluntary decisionmaking and the factors that support or challenge it.

"Choices in Family Planning" consists of three sections:

• a Discussion Guide, which explains key concepts in depth
• a Preliminary Assessment Guide, which helps users determine a programme's strengths and weaknesses
• a Next Steps Guide, which aids users in strengthening informed choice within programmes

This initial module of the "Realizing Rights in Sexual and Reproductive Health Services" tool kit series focuses on decision making for family planning, recognising that clients also need to make decisions about other sexual and reproductive health services EgenderHealth is in the process of developing modules on the topics of sexually transmitted infections (STIs)/HIV and postabortion care (PAC).
