项目摘要

This study will explore contraceptive choice among women who reside in Kathmandu valley, Nepal. Kathmandu valley is well-served by health, family planning and social services providing women access to the full range of contraceptive alternatives. Given the availability of temporary contraception methods, it is somewhat surprising that sterilization and injectables are widely used. Our research centers on whether the government's campaign to reduce fertility in rural areas has created a preference for sterilization and injectables even in urban areas where in reality a wider range of choices are accessible and available or are issues of women's status and patriarchal family structure more important in determining contraceptive choice? In this study we propose to examine how women's preference to use a specific method is influenced by socio-economic and demographic factors as well as women's empowerment. Similarly, we will examine indirect influences of the government and non-government sector regarding policies regarding family planning and media messages on family planning. Finally, we will examine the broader implications of women's choice of method for their reproductive health and how this choice reflects knowledge of reproductive health. Both quantitative and qualitative methods will be used for the study. The data for the quantitative study will come from the 2001 Nepal Demographic and Health Survey. Qualitative methods employed in the field include focus group discussions with approximately 150 married women and men in three urban districts of the Kathmandu Valley. Key-informant interviews of non-government (NGO) workers, family planning workers and policy makers, and content analysis of government/NGO policies and documents will also be other methods employed for the qualitative component. The broader impacts of this study include the following. Researchers, students, and policymakers interested in understanding how women decide to use a specific method will find this research important for improving reproductive health. Increasing contraceptive use in developing countries, particularly in urban areas, makes valuable research on how and why women choose specific methods. Results from this research could lead to policy recommendations that would aid in the development of family planning and reproductive health policies in Nepal as well as in other national settings.
这项研究将探索居住在尼泊尔加德满都山谷的妇女的避孕选择。加德满都山谷得到了健康、计划生育和社会服务的良好服务,为妇女提供了全面的避孕替代方案。考虑到临时避孕方法的可获得性,绝育和注射剂的广泛使用有点令人惊讶。我们的研究重点是,政府在农村地区降低生育率的运动是否在城市地区创造了对绝育和注射的偏好,实际上城市地区的选择范围更广,或者妇女地位和父权家庭结构的问题在决定避孕选择方面更重要?在这项研究中,我们建议研究妇女对使用特定方法的偏好如何受到社会经济和人口因素以及妇女赋权的影响。同样,我们将研究政府和民间对计划生育政策的间接影响,以及媒体对计划生育的信息。最后,我们将审查妇女选择方法对其生殖健康的更广泛影响,以及这种选择如何反映生殖健康知识。本研究将采用定量和定性相结合的研究方法。这项定量研究的数据将来自2001年尼泊尔人口和健康调查。实地采用的定性方法包括与加德满都河谷三个城区的约150名已婚妇女和男子进行焦点小组讨论。对非政府(非政府组织)工作人员、计划生育工作人员和政策制定者的主要信息提供人访谈,以及对政府/非政府组织政策和文件的内容分析,也将是定性部分采用的其他方法。这项研究的更广泛影响包括以下几个方面。对了解女性如何决定使用特定方法感兴趣的研究人员、学生和政策制定者将发现这项研究对改善生殖健康很重要。在发展中国家,特别是在城市地区,越来越多的人使用避孕药具,这使得对妇女如何以及为什么选择特定方法进行了有价值的研究。这项研究的结果可能导致政策建议,这些建议将有助于尼泊尔以及其他国家制定计划生育和生殖健康政策。
