Health Communication

The emphasis healthy timing and spacing of pregnancy (HTSP) places on healthy fertility enables women and couples to make informed decisions about pregnancy timing and spacing to achieve the healthiest possible pregnancy outcomes.

Information, Education, and Communication (IEC) is a process of working with individuals, communities, and societies to develop context-appropriate communication strategies to promote healthful behaviors such as HTSP. This section of the Toolkit shares resources to effectively communicate about family planning and HTSP. These include PowerPoint presentations that you can use and/or adapt for your audience, links to a short video public service announcement (PSA), a video about HTSP, and IEC materials such as posters and brochures. 
 
For counseling tools and job aids for communicating about HTSP with clients, please visit the Service Delivery section of the Toolkit.
