From 2011 to 2021, most Ouagadougou Partnership countries doubled their contraceptive prevalence rates. Benin, Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire, Guinea, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Senegal and Togo added 4 million modern contraceptive users.
As a result, 18,848,000 unintended pregnancies, 6,697,500 unsafe abortions and 63,740 maternal deaths were averted. The current goal is to reach 13 million users by 2030, thus doubling the current 6.5 million.
