SHOPS Plus also developed two interactive data visualization tools that help family planning program managers and policy makers gain a deeper understanding so that they can create more sustainable family planning markets.
- Private Sector Counts shows the past and current situation across multiple countries. The tool uses data from the most recent Demographic and Health Survey data in 37 low- and middle-income countries.
- Family Planning Market Analyzer shows projections of future scenarios for individual countries. This tool combines data from Demographic and Health Surveys and Family Planning 2020’s projections of modern contraceptive prevalence.
