In the decade spanning the three Kenya Demographic and Health Surveys (KDHS) of 1993, 1998 and 2003, the demographic change that had shown a remarkable momentum began to slow down as shown in critical indicators. The contraceptive prevalence rate (CPR) for all methods among married women, which had risen from 27 percent in 1989 to 39 percent in 1998, plateaued at 39 percent in 2003. Similarly, the total fertility rate (TFR), which had fallen from 8.1 in 1979 to 4.7 in 1998 showed a slight increase to 4.9 children per woman in 2003. The current unmet need for contraception of 24 percent further demonstrates existence of a serious need for the population programme to reach and retain a significant group of women wishing to delay or limit childbearing. These findings have raised the need to carry out a further analysis of the 2003 KDHS data. This particular part of the analysis sought to find out “The Effect of declining family planning information, education and communication efforts on contraceptive behaviour”. The study aimed at answering the following research questions: What is the nature of trends in the support for FP IEC programme during 1993-2003 period? How has access to family planning information changed over the period? How have IEC-related determinants of contraceptive adoption changed over the years
