Les mesures internationales de planification familiale, telles que la prévalence contraceptive, les besoins non satisfaits et la demande satisfaite, servent d'indicateurs essentiels pour suivre les progrès et évaluer les impacts des politiques et des programmes de planification familiale. Bien que ces mesures soient largement utilisées depuis des décennies, un nombre croissant de chercheur·es en font une critique assez convaincante, appelant à clarifier la terminologie et à interpréter ces mesures correctement, ainsi qu'à élaborer de nouvelles mesures pour saisir des aspects importants concernant l'équité et les préférences et les comportements des individus.
Le Comité scientifique de l'UIESP « Repenser la mesure de la planification familiale sous l’angle de la justice et des droits reproductifs » se compose d’un groupe diversifié de chercheur·es, de décideur·es et de personnes en charge de programmes de diverses régions afin d’examiner de manière critique les indicateurs internationaux de fécondité et de planification familiale afin d'améliorer la collecte, la mesure, l'évaluation et la communication sur les carences des programmes de planification familiale.
