Family Planning – A Global Handbook for Providers: 2022 Edition

Following the publication of new recommendations on contraceptive eligibility for women at high risk of HIV infection, WHO and the Knowledge SUCCESS Project at Johns Hopkins University’s Center for Communication Programs (CCP) are proud to announce a revised and updated 2022 edition of the Global Handbook. This new edition will include two new chapters. One chapter will offer practical advice on providing family planning to women and girls in high HIV-burden settings, and assure the Global Handbook remains in alignment with WHO recommendations. The other new chapter will focus on contraceptive service delivery considerations for frontline providers in the context of emergencies (Find the Spanish translation of this chapter here). The content will draw upon WHO’s adaptation of the SPR for humanitarian settings and learnings from the Ebola, Zika, and COVID-19 pandemics. The methodology used to develop each of the new chapters can be found here.
