International Seminar on Interrelationships between Contraception, Unintended Pregnancy and Induced Abortion
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, 1-3 December 2008
Organized by the IUSSP Scientific Panel on Abortion and and Ipas-Ethiopia
Deadline for submission of abstract: 23 May 2008
The objective of this seminar is to document, stimulate and advance research on interrelationships between contraception, unintended pregnancy and induced abortion, by bringing together researchers who are developing and applying innovative approaches to studying these issues. The seminar will address issues related to abortion decision making and the prevention of unplanned pregnancy among individuals and couples, as well as the macro or aggregate-level relationships between these behaviours including trends over time and differences among population groups and across countries. This area of research is of high priority and is at a stage where it would benefit greatly from scientific exchange.
This seminar will provide an opportunity for researchers to present results from new studies and guide future work in this area. It will bring together researchers who are working on different aspects of these issues in order to advance knowledge of the linkages between the different components, and provide a more comprehensive understanding of how to prevent unintended pregnancy. Papers may be country-specific or comparative, on developed or developing countries, quantitative and/or qualitative. Additional aims of the seminar are to increase networking between researchers and to facilitate linkages and coordination across disciplines, countries and research institutions.
A full announcement and description of this seminar is available at:
