ABSTRACT

The International Planned Parenthood Federation has sponsored programs around the world to publicize the

relationship between nutrition and family planning. Such programs provide information about both nutrition and

family planning. Many also seek to combat the son preference in many countries which remains a major obstacle to

the small family norm. The programs in Korea, Sudan, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Japan, Indonesia, and the Philippines

are cited as examples. (PubHealth.info Document ID: CONT7T 26-06)
