UNFPA Laos has been implementing family planning (FP) activities with and for communities within the framework of its 5th country programme (CP5) from 2012 through 2015. This report presents the results from an evaluation of two interlinked components of the CP5:
1) Community-Based Distribution (CBD) of contraceptives and other reproductive health commodities and
2) the application of the WHO framework for community mobilisation working with Individuals, Families and Communities (IFC) to improve maternal and new-born health.
The current combined estimated overall budget for these two programmes, including overhead and capacity building activities, was $1.4 million for 2012 through 2014.
