dc.description.abstract
Infertility is a serious personal, social and public health issue in developing countries such as Malawi. Infertility is
often a ‘hidden’ problem in this context as the policy and service emphasis is on issues like infant mortality and
family planning. Social expectations can also contribute to the problem. This research briefing reports on the first
in-depth qualitative study of infertility in Malawi. These findings aim to form a starting point for development of
services and programs that are based on people’s own views, local needs and go beyond family planning.
