Developed regions Developing regions Least developed countries
This wallchart presents the most up-to-date informa-
tion on reproductive health policies and programmes
in 197 countries, including all 193 Member States,
two Observer States (the Holy See and the State of
Palestine) and 2 non-member States (Cook Islands
and Niue) of the United Nations.
Countries are grouped geographically into six major
areas: Asia; Africa; Europe; Latin America and the
Caribbean; Northern America; and Oceania. The
major areas are further divided geographically into
21 regions. In addition, the regions are classified as
belonging to either of two groups: developed regions
and developing regions.
The developed regions comprise all regions of
Europe plus Northern America, Australia, New Zea-
land and Japan. The developing regions comprise all
regions of Africa, Asia (excluding Japan), Latin Amer-
ica and the Caribbean plus Melanesia, Micronesia
and Polynesia.
The designations “developed” and “developing”
are intended for statistical convenience and do
not express a judgement about the stage reached
by a particular country or area in the development
process.
The 49 least developed countries include 34 in
Africa, 9 in Asia, 5 in Oceania and 1 in Latin America
and the Caribbean, as defined by United Nations
General Assembly resolutions 59/209, 59/210,
60/33, 62/97, 64/295 and 67/136.
Total fertility and adolescent birth rates are not
shown for countries with a population of less than
90,000 inhabitants.
Three dots (…) indicate that data are not available.
An em dash (—) indicates that the item is not
applicable.
N.I. indicates “No Intervention”
1 Laws on abortion either expressly allow abor-
tion to be performed only to save the life of a
woman or are governed by general principles
of criminal legislation which allow abortion to
be performed for that reason on the ground
of necessity. In addition, the British case of
R. v. Bourne or local application of that decision
is applied. Under that decision, the ground of
necessity was interpreted to encompass abor-
tion performed on grounds of preserving physi-
cal and mental health.
2 Laws on abortion do not expressly allow abor-
tion to be performed to save the life of a woman,
but general principles of criminal legislation
allow abortion to be performed for that reason
on the ground of necessity.
3 Data refer to a non-standard definition of unmet
need for family planning.
4 Preliminary data.
5 Infecundity measured, in part, with question on
current use of contraception instead of ever use
of contraception.
6 Data refer to pre-secession Sudan, including
data for South Sudan.
7 Nigeria has two laws on abortion: one for the
northern states and one for the southern states.
Both laws specifically allow abortion to be per-
formed to save the life of a woman. In addition, in
the southern states, the decision of R. v. Bourne is
applied, which allows abortion to be performed on
grounds of preserving physical and mental health.
8 Data refer to a non-standard age or marital sta-
tus group.
9 Although the law allows abortion for economic
or social reasons, it provides no specific refer-
ence to abortion performed on grounds of men-
tal health or because of foetal impairment.
10 The law allows abortion to be performed in order
to save the life of a woman or to provide neces-
sary treatment. The law does not indicate which
abortions constitute necessary treatment.
11 Excluding the Northern Province.
12 Data refer to nationals of the country.
13 Data refer to unmet need for limiting only.
14 Refers to the abortion law of England, Wales
and Scotland.
15 Laws on abortion have been amended to remove
all grounds on which abortion might be performed
legally. However, it is not clear whether a defence
of necessity might be allowed to justify an abor-
tion performed to save the life of a woman.
16 Data refer to a population subgroup.
17 The Penal Code makes no exceptions to the
general prohibition on the performance of
abortion; the Code of Medical Ethics, however,
allows abortion for therapeutic purposes.
18 Laws on abortion are adopted at the state level.
The grounds reported reflect those in the Fed-
eral Penal Code.
NOTES

2. Measures to end child and forced marriages:a Indicates
whether the Government has implemented concrete meas-
ures in the past five years to end child marriage and forced
marriage.
Women aged 20–24 married by age 18:b Percentage of
women aged 20 to 24 years who married or entered a union
before age 18. A union involves a man and a woman regularly
cohabiting in a marriage-like relationship.
Policy on fertility:c Refers to the objective of policies or
measures adopted by the Government to influence the
level of fertility in the country. Three types of objectives are
­distinguished: (1) to raise fertility; (2) to lower fertility; and
(3) to maintain fertility at its current level. In addition, when
appropriate, the fact that a Government has no intervention
aimed at affecting the level of fertility is also indicated.
Concern about adolescent fertility:c Indicates the extent
to which the Government considers the level of adolescent
fertility in the country to be a concern. Three categories are
distinguished: (1) a major concern; (2) a minor concern; and
(3) not a concern.
Policies to reduce adolescent fertility:c Indicates whether
the Government has implemented any programmes or meas-
ures to reduce the level of fertility among adolescents.
Total fertility:d Average number of children a hypothetical
cohort of women would have at the end of their reproductive
period if they were subject during their whole lives to the
fertility rates of a given period and if they were not subject to
mortality. Total fertility is expressed as children per woman.
It refers to the period 2010-2015.
Adolescent birth rate:d Annual number of births to women
aged 15 to 19 years, divided by the number of women aged
15 to 19 years. Adolescent birth rate is expressed as births
per 1,000 women. It refers to the period 2010-2015.
Support for family planning:c Indicates the type of support
given by the Government for the provision of family plan-
ning. Four categories are distinguished: (1) direct support;
(2) indirect support; (3) no support; and (4) not permitted.
Direct support implies that family planning information,
guidance and supplies are provided through government-
run facilities or outlets. Indirect support implies that the
Government does not provide family planning services
through government outlets, but instead supports the private
sector and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in provid-
ing those services. No support means that the Government
allows the private sector and NGOs to provide family planning
services without giving any material support. Not permitted
means that the Government does not allow family planning
programmes or services within its jurisdiction.
Programmes to ensure youth’s access to contraception:a
Indicates whether the Government has specific programmes
to ensure the access of adolescents and youth to sexual and
reproductive health information and services that warrant
and respect privacy, confidentiality and informed consent in
the area of contraceptives.
Measures to increase access to SRH services:a Indicates
whether the Government has implemented concrete meas-
ures in the past five years to increase women’s access to
comprehensive sexual and reproductive health (SRH) ser-
vices, regardless of marital status and age.
Unmet need for family planning:e Women with an unmet
need for family planning are those, married or in-union women
aged 15 to 49 years, who are fecund and sexually active
but are not using any method of contraception although they
report not wanting any more children or wanting to delay the
next pregnancy. Aggregate group estimates are weighted
averages of the model-based country estimates, using the
number of married or in-union women aged 15 to 49 years in
each country as weights.
Births attended by skilled health staff:f Percentage of deliv-
eries attended by trained health personnel. Traditional birth
attendants (TBAs), even if they have received a short training
course, are not included.
Legal grounds for abortion:c Indicates legal provisions
under which the Government permits induced abortion
in the country. Induced abortions are those initiated by
deliberate action taken with the intention of terminating
pregnancy; all other abortions are considered spontane-
ous. Seven grounds on which abortion is permitted are
distinguished: (1) To save a woman’s life; (2) To preserve
a woman’s physical health; (3) To preserve a woman’s
mental health; (4) In case of rape or incest; (5) Because
of foetal impairment; (6) For economic or social reasons;
(7) On request.
Measures to improve access to safe abortion services:a
Indicates whether the Government has implemented con-
crete measures in the past five years to improve access to
safe abortion services to the extent of the law.
View on maternal mortality:c Indicates whether the Govern-
ment considers the level of maternal mortality in the country
