“…Tantangan yang lebih besar di hadapi ketika kebutuhan untuk mengikuti program KB tidak terpenuhi dalam rumah tangga miskin, tingkat pendidikan rendah, dan tinggal di pedesaan. Cakupan program KB meningkat seiring dengan penurunan kemiskinan dan ketidaksetaraan gender (Gayatri & Fajarningtiyas, 2023, Ahinkorah et al, 2020, Asif et al, 2019Starbird et al, 2016, Miller & Babiarz, 2016.…”

Pengentasan kemiskinan merupakan tujuan pertama dari Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Program keluarga berencana (KB) merupakan salah satu pilihan yang dilakukan pemerintah Indonesia untuk mengurangi angka kemiskinan. Keberhasilan program KB perlu dijelaskan untuk memberikan informasi yang dibutuhkan untuk mendukung program pengentasan kemiskinan. Penelitian komprehensif yang berfokus untuk menjelaskan dampak program KB terhadap pengentasan kemiskinan di Indonesia masih terbatas. Teknik analisis data oldinary least squere (OLS) menggunakan data agregat yang mencakup 34 provinsi di Indonesia pada tahun 2010-2021. Program keluarga berencana berdampak negatif terhadap kemiskinan di Indonesia. Pengendalian jumlah rumah tangga miskin keluar dari lingkaran setan kemiskinan. Ada bukti kuat yang mendorong pemerintah untuk mengevaluasi program KB menjadi prioritas investasi pemerintah dalam pengentasan kemiskinan di Indonesia.

“…Family planning program improves maternal and child health by increasing the birth interval, reducing the number of pregnancies, reducing the high-risk pregnancies, and improving planned pregnancies (Utomo et al, 2021). Unintended pregnancy and its potential risk may result in unsafe abortion and many adverse health effects or complications for babies and their mothers (Gayatri & Fajarningtiyas, 2023). Therefore, family planning services must continue to be offered in order to prevent the problem associated with unintended pregnancy, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.…”

At the beginning of the pandemic, the policy focused on COVID-19 prevention and control. Health facilities faced disruption temporarily regarding contraceptive services. This study analysed the impacts of the COVID-19 outbreak on Family Planning services in Indonesia. Monthly routine statistics from the National Population and Family Planning Board contraceptive service were examined to determine the trends in contraceptive services in Indonesia before and during the COVID-19 Pandemic from January to December 2020. The study was secondary data analysis by utilizing monthly report data from all provinces in Indonesia. Comparison data would account for the monthly trends before and during the pandemic. There was a decrease in contraceptive services between March and April 2020. However, the trend started to increase in June when a one million acceptors campaign was conducted to provide free family planning services in 34 provinces. Injectable (54%) and pills (39%) remain the most favorable contraceptives during the pandemic. IUDs and implants peaked in June 2020 (288,503 users) and September 2020 (214,061 users). The massive campaign of contraceptive services has had a positive impact in increasing the contraceptive users. Contraceptive services are conducted following strict health protocols. Continuation of contraceptive use among reproductive couples still needs to be increased.

Background Unmet need for birth spacing can significantly impact maternal and child health outcomes, leading to unintended or mistimed births, neonatal mortality, pregnancy loss, induced abortions, small-sized births, and malnutrition. Considering the role of women empowerment in women’s sexual and reproductive health, we examined the association between the survey-based women's empowerment index (SWPER) and unmet need for spacing in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Methods We used data from the Demographic and Health Surveys of 21 in SSA conducted between 2015 and 2021. In this study, the unit of analysis was women of reproductive age (15 to 49 years) who were married or living together and required family planning during the survey period. Multilevel logistic regression was fitted to examine the association between SWPER and the unmet need for spacing. The results were presented using adjusted odds ratios (AORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results The hotspot countries for unmet need for birth spacing were Angola, Benin, Liberia, Mauritania, and Sierra Leone. The findings showed that with the empowerment indicators, women with high attitude to violence (disagreement or rejection of violence) (AOR = 0.95; 95% CI 0.91, 0.99), and women with high decision-making (AOR = 0.90; 95% CI 0.85, 0.95) exhibited lower odds of unmet spacing need relative to women with low attitude to violence and those with low decision making. Women with high autonomy (AOR = 1.32; 95% CI 1.25, 1.39) were more likely to experience unmet need for spacing compared to those with low autonomy. Conclusion Unmet need for spacing has been linked to indices of women's empowerment such as attitudes toward violence, independence, and decision-making. Organizations such as UNICEF, UNFPA, and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation should consider incorporating SWPER indicators when planning interventions to address the high unmet need for spacing among women in SSA. Additionally, various governments and aid organizations must give women's empowerment a high priority as a tactical intervention strategy to increase access to contraception in the countries considered in this study. These programmes would contribute to attaining SDGs 3.1 and 3.7.
