Abstract

"This article will deal with the family planning situation in Benin, more precisely [with] the level of knowledge, attitudes and practice (KAP) concerning modern contraceptive methods, and the hope for a successful family planning programme in Benin. We will look at studies which have already been done and we will also present some promising results of an experimental study which we carried out [in 1990]...." The period studied is from 1979 to 1991.
