It primarily aims to help couples to realize their desired timing, spacing, and number of children in accordance with their socioeconomic, emotional, and psychological capacity.
- The Adolescent Health and Youth Development Program (AHYDP) is POPCOM’s response to the growing awareness worldwide on the reproductive health issues and concerns of the youth and their significant contribution to future population and health trends. Projects conducted under the AHYDP include media outreach, skills training and enhancement programs, peer counseling, and support to other youth programs and projects.
- POPDEV is the explicit consideration of socio-economic and demographic interrelations in the formulation of development plans, policies and programs to achieve the nation’s development objectives at the macro levels and the desired behavioral outcomes at the household and individual level.
- GENDER AND DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM – POPCOM’s strategies under the Philippine Population Management Program (PPMP) are given a high level of gender-responsiveness by the Philippine Commission on Women (the implementing arm of GAD in the public sector). Categorized as either for RP-FP, for Adolescent Health and Youth Development (AHYD), and Population and Development (POPDEV), these strategies are GAD-harmonized and gender-sensitive determined by outputs such as couples sharing responsibilities in responsible parenting as well as age-and-sex disaggregated data banking, among others.
