A new study published in BMC Public Health has cast a spotlight on Ghana’s journey in expanding access to modern family planning methods, drawing attention to both impressive achievements and lingering disparities over the past decade. The research, titled “Demand for family planning satisfied by modern methods in Ghana: trends and inequalities (2013–2022),” provides updated insights into how Ghana is addressing reproductive health—a topic with growing resonance for policymakers and public health experts across the developing world, including Thailand (BMC Public Health).

A new study in BMC Public Health examines Ghana’s decade-long journey to expand access to modern family planning. The research, titled Demand for family planning satisfied by modern methods in Ghana: trends and inequalities (2013–2022), highlights both notable progress and persistent gaps in reproductive health.

Data show a steady rise in the share of Ghanaian women whose demand for modern contraception is met. This trend reflects ongoing government and partner efforts to broaden services, diversify available methods, and boost public awareness. The findings align with global targets that emphasize universal access to reproductive health under Sustainable Development Goal 3.
