Regional disparities in fertility preferences and demand for family planning satisfied by modern methods across levels of poverty: Mozambique An Analysis Brief from The DHS Program
Abstract
The DHS Analytical Studies 71 examines subnational variations in fertility preferences and family planning outcomes associated with poverty in married women in 12 recent Demographic and Health Surveys. Poverty is measured based on a standard set of criteria for unsatisfied basic needs and the ownership of specific assets. Households are categorized into three poverty groups: not extremely poor, extremely poor but not asset poor, and extremely poor and asset poor. This brief summarizes the results from the Democratic Republic of The Congo based on the 2013-14 DHS on regional variations in poverty, regional estimates of mean ideal number of children, and demand for family planning satisfied by modern methods, for each poverty group among married women.
