The main objective of the book is to evaluate the impact of education
programs targeting women’s reproductive health, initiated and sponsored
by Willows International. The book focuses on Turkey, and the
fi eldwork was carried out in Istanbul.
The analyses of Turkey’s cultural values and their relation to reproductive
attitudes and behavior are a unique contribution based on the
fi ndings of a recent nationwide survey while the chapter on the historical
background of Turkey’s family planning policies provides a useful
background to interpret the fi ndings from the field.
The book will serve as a reference and a useful resource for scholars and
policymakers interested in family planning and reproductive health in
Turkey as well as those with a broader and theoretical perspective.
