Family Planning Data
World Contraceptive Use 2024
Contraceptive prevalence and the unmet need for family planning are key indicators for measuring improvements in access to reproductive health as asserted in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development under target 3.7. "By 2030, ensure universal access to sexual and reproductive health-care services, including for family planning, information and education, and the integration of reproductive health into national strategies and programmes". 
The data set, World Contraceptive Use 2024, includes country-specific survey-based observations of key family planning indicators, based on survey data available as of April 2024. This new data set was used to generate  Family Planning Indicators 2024  providing national, regional and global estimates and projections of family planning indicators. 
Both datasets are used for the global monitoring of the  Sustainable Development Goals indicator 3.7.1. "Proportion of women of reproductive age (aged 15-49 years) who have their need for family planning satisfied with modern methods".
Estimates and Projections of Family Planning Indicators 2024
The Population Division produces a systematic and comprehensive series of annual, model-based estimates and projections of key family planning indicators. The time series are available for the population of women of reproductive age (15 to 49 years) who are married or in a union for the period from 1970 to 2030 and for all women of reproductive age and for those who are unmarried for the period from 1990 to 2030. Median estimates with 80 per cent and 95 per cent uncertainty intervals are provided for 200 countries and areas of the world and for regions and development groups. A Bayesian hierarchical model combined with country-specific time trends was used to generate the estimates, projections and uncertainty assessments. 
The estimates and projections are based on the country-specific data compiled in World Contraceptive Use 2024. Model results are as of July 2024.
