"People still produce many kids for security reasons; we must provide programs to ensure hat people are cared for in old age whether or not they have children.”

Clementine Tunga - Student.

 


 "We must discourage religions that encourage overpopulation.”

Louise Akimana  -  Student.

 


 "Improve the availability of contraception and family planning information. Making sure every child is a wanted child is a huge step.”

Margret Iriza - Hairstylist.


"Family planning is the way forward, given the high cost of living; producing one kid is the wise thing to do. Also we should increase farm productivity; income-earning mothers use their scarce time in productive employment rather than raising children.”

 Janvier Mazimpaka - Kanombe resident.
