Our overarching goal is to enable providers to consistently offer and deliver highly effective postpartum family planning methods in accordance with international guidelines. Our primary objective in this research is to assess the implementation and effectiveness of the "Postpartum Family Planning Package (PFPP)," an implementation strategy that consists of the following components: 1) a provider training on contraceptive methods available in the immediate postpartum period, and techniques for their placement in the case of intrauterine devices and implants, with quarterly booster trainings, and 2) promotion of the WHO MEC/Postpartum Family Planning Compendium mobile application as a provider decision tool to aid in postpartum family planning counselling.
