The IUSSP Panel on Rethinking Family Planning Measurement with a Rights and Justice Lens has been working for the last three years to help strengthen measurement of the need for and use of family planning. This presentation provides a summary of the Panel’s work and important advancements being made in family planning measurement. Our presentation will review the major paradigms of family planning measurement and arguments for new frameworks and measures as we move into the next era of global indicators (i.e., post-Sustainable Development Goals). Drawing on the three frameworks of reproductive rights, reproductive justice, and person-centered measurement, we lay out what should be guiding the development and adoption of new family planning measures. We share findings from a global consensus building exercise around improved family planning measurement and summarize findings from that exercise. Finally, we present findings from a recommendations workshop held with a global pool of experts in November 2025 and present draft recommendations from our three-year scope of work.
