Overview of the launching ceremony

In 2014, the work of population and family planning in Nghia Dan district continued to achieve important results: the birth rate decreased by 2.8%o, the rate of third and higher births decreased by 2.2%, the natural population growth rate decreased by 0.3% compared to 2013. Communication and education work and mobilization for signing commitments to implement the population/family planning policy were strengthened. However, besides the achieved results, the work of population and family planning in the district still faces many risks and challenges: The population size is increasingly large, the quality of the population still has many potential risks, the work of adolescent reproductive health care still has many shortcomings, the rate of gender imbalance at birth is still high.
