Role of Women in Improving Family Welfare through Family Planning Safari Program

“…The participation and empowerment of women within this framework bear the potential to not only expand women's access but also foster a transformative shift in cultural paradigms. With an eye toward this transformative potential, community service endeavours aim to arm women with knowledge and insights, equipping them to actively contribute to the success of the family planning program through initiatives like family planning safaris (Idris et al, 2021;Karlina, 2019;Khairunisa et al, 2023;Rosiyana et al, 2022).
