Although the use of condoms is important for fertility control and preventing AIDS, its use is surprisingly low in the developing countries. This paper investigated the socioeconomic correlates of contraceptive use with special reference to condoms in rural Bangladesh. Data for this study came from Matlab MCH-FP area where ICDDR,B has been providing comprehensive maternal and child health and family planing services for a population of 100,000 since 1977. Education and socioeconomic status were not related to contraceptive use, but were positively correlated to condom use. Development, particularly women’s education and higher socioeconomic status, also seem important for increasing condom usage.

This paper analyzes community views concerning how to increase the effective community participation in the Bangladesh Family Planning Program (FPP) in order to make it sustainable and self-reliant. Study data was collected through literature review, focus group discussions and observations of selected successful programs. Several important observations about effective community participation in family planning include the need for political commitment of the government, integration of health and family planning services, and formation of local committees for monitoring, planning and evaluation are important. Findings also indicate that rewards should be offered for achieving family planning and maternal and child health targets.
