Family Planning and Adolescent Reproductive Health Activity

The five-year USAID National Family Planning and Adolescent Reproductive Health (FP/ARH) Activity (2024-2029) aims to improve family planning and adolescent reproductive health in the Philippines. It is a key component of the USAID Universal Health Care Project (UHCP) with the goal of improving health outcomes of underserved Filipinos. The FP/ARH Activity will help advance the Philippine government’s efforts under the Universal Health Care law to improve the delivery of quality preventive, promotive care at the primary health care level. The Activity will contribute to achieving the Philippine government’s health goals as follows: Increase the demand satisfied with modern FP methods among all women of reproductive age from 42 percent in 2022 to 75 percent by 2030; Reduce the adolescent birth rate from 25 per 1,000 girls (age 15-19) in 2022 to 12 per 1,000 girls by 2030; and Reduce the maternal mortality ratio from 144 per 100,000 live births in 2020 to less than 70 per 100,000 live births by 2030
