Donor support for contraceptives and condoms for STI/HIV prevention
2001
This report highlights trends in donor support for contraceptives and condoms since 1990 and the gap between estimated needs and actual donor support. The estimated condom requirements for STI/HIV prevention and contraceptive requirements for family planning programmes, prepared separately by UNFPA, are compared with the actual donor support figures to examine donor contributions vis-à-vis country needs.This report also demonstrates donor support by region, support by product, the top 10 countries supported by donors and the quantity of male and female condoms supplied in countries.The paper finds that global donor support from 2001 appears to be declining despite the rising needs for contraceptive commodities worldwide. Rising condom support for STI/HIV prevention is also a growing and significant emerging trend, shaping the nature and direction of donor funding.This underscores the need to comprehensively monitor growing requirements and potential shortfalls, by collecting and analysing country specific data from all possible support channels, commercial, government procurement, and NGO’s, among others. Additional country-specific information on dollar value support by commodity type, would also help in building a more complete global picture, facilitating flexible and effective program design and method mix management, necessary aids in meeting the ICPD goal of universal choice and availability of contraceptives by 2015.
