Zambia has made notable strides in improving maternal health over the years, but more progress is needed regarding contraceptive prevalence, skilled birth attendance and the implementation of high-impact maternal health interventions. UNFPA supports programmes for family planning, emergency obstetric and neonatal care, midwifery, HIV prevention and adolescent sexual and reproductive health care at national and subnational levels.
