Abstract

The study was conducted in two phases. In the first phase, focus group discussions were utilized to identify all the different reasons for non-use of contraception among women identified as having an unmet need for family planning. The information obtained from these discussions was used to design questions for inclusion in the second phase, a nationally representative sample survey.

The objective of the study was to move beyond previous research on the KAP-GAP by conducting an in-depth investigation which would identify the reasons for non-use of family planning among women in Nepal who wanted to space or limit their births. This objective was realized through the application of focus group methods followed by a survey which included an open-ended question regarding reasons for non-use.
