The Contraception-21 strategy aims to advance contraceptive research by focusing on women's unmet needs. It seeks novel methods for the next century, especially for developing nations.

Area of Science:

  • Reproductive Health
  • Contraceptive Technology
  • Molecular Biology

Background:

  • Current contraceptive options remain insufficient for global needs, particularly in developing countries.
  • Technological advancements have not fully addressed the evolving requirements for family planning.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline the Contraception-21 strategy, adopted in 1993 by the Rockefeller Foundation.
  • To mobilize the field of contraceptive research for developing novel approaches for the 21st century.
  • To ensure contraceptive development is driven by women's unmet needs, not solely by demographics or scientific opportunities.

Main Methods:

  • Mobilizing scientific advancements, especially in cell and molecular biology, to create new contraceptive tools.
  • Engaging industry to secure necessary resources for research and development.
