East Asia Review, 1973. 6. Philippines.

Abstract:

:In 1973, the Philippine population program was reorganized, and new strategies for motivating clients and training personnel were developed. The Woman and Child Labor Law was amended to limit maternity leave benefits, promote family planning services, and remove discrimination against married female employees. The Board of the Commission on Population (POPCOM) was expanded to include 2 members from the private sector. Over 740,000 acceptors were recorded by the 2032 reporting clinics. The monthly average number of acceptors per clinic, however, fell from about 36 in January to 30 in December. All graduating students in high schools, universities, and teacher training institutions throughout the country were required to take seminars in population education during 1973. Regional officers were designated in the 11 administrative regions of the country to coordinate family planning activities at this level. In 1973, POPCOM established a Planning Division to replace the Population Evaluation and Research Division. Total assistance to the national family program for calendar year 1973 was approximately US$10 million of which 26% was contributed by the Philippine government. Other funds came from USAID (55%), the United Nations Development Program (6%), and other donors (13%). The UNFPA agreed to contribute a maximum of $5 million over a 5-year period to program projects.
