Abstract
- At the same time, most programs focus more on indicators that measure health status, service provision or utilization, or the success of reproductive health interventions at the subnational level (WHO, [40]). Data for these indicators come from nationally representative surveys such as the Demographic and Health Surveys and Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys, but not all countries conduct these surveys on a regular basis or conduct them using the same population (e.g., exclusion of unmarried youth), and there are limitations to the measures derived from them (e.g., the fixed age range). In August of 2021, the Editorial Committee of I Studies in Family Planning i put out a call for abstracts for a special issue focused on indicators in sexual and reproductive health and rights. Another prevalent theme in the papers in this special issue involves the need for better measurement of psychosocial and socioecological factors that influence sexual and reproductive health-related behaviors.
