The global family planning community has made significant progress towards enabling 120 million more women and girls to use contraceptives by 2020, though we enter the decade ahead with a long road yet to travel. While investment in strong health systems and supply chains is still needed, the supply-driven approach dominant in family planning fails to address the individual, relational, and social barriers faced by women and couples in achieving their reproductive intentions and desired family size. Overcoming these barriers will require a better understanding of behavioral drivers and the social environment in which family planning decisions are made, and an increased investment in the proven, yet underutilized, approach of social and behavior change (SBC). We make the case that a more intentional focus on the science of human behavior in family planning can help advance the achievement of global, regional, and national goals while also calling for strategic and sustained investment that reflects the critical importance and proven impact of SBC approaches.

将社会和行为改变作为计划生育项目的重要组成部分

全球计划生育界在实现到 2020 年让 1.2 亿更多妇女和女孩使用避孕药具方面取得了重大进展，尽管我们进入未来十年还有很长的路要走。虽然仍然需要对强大的卫生系统和供应链进行投资，但在计划生育中占主导地位的供应驱动方法未能解决妇女和夫妇在实现其生育意图和期望的家庭规模方面面临的个人、关系和社会障碍。克服这些障碍需要更好地了解行为驱动因素和制定计划生育决策的社会环境，并增加对经过验证但未充分利用的社会和行为改变 (SBC) 方法的投资。
