Therefore contraception is the utilization of various and sundry surgical procedures, devices, practices, agents, or drugs with the intention of preventing conception or impregnation (pregnancy).

ABSTRACT

This is 1 of a series of development modules designed to assist professionals in the IEC (information, education,

and communication) branch of population/family planning programs to improve their communication skills. Each

module is complete and geared toward self-instruction. This module contains readings, exercises, and

discussions. Small cases and examples from actual family planning programs are used as the basis for group

discussions. The focus of this particular module is on interagency communication. As the "homework," the

employee taking the training module is asked to develop a plan and strategy for establishing interorganizational

coordination between his organization and 1 or more others. A focal field, i.e., an area of focus for the interagency

coordination, should be chosen. Then the employee assesses which organization contributes what to the

coordination process, which organization benefits in what ways, and what are the costs of coordination.
