In the past decade, Malawi has seen an improvement in contraceptive access for women in the country. In 2016, about 58% of married women (ages 15 to 49) were using some form of modern contraception, which was a notable increase since 2010 (when 42% of women used modern contraception). However, many women in Malawi still struggle to access contraception -- and, in fact, one in five married girls and women in Malawi want contraception but do not have access to it.<ref>[https://www.psi.org/2018/11/paving-pathways-to-contraceptive-self-injection/ PAVING PATHWAYS TO CONTRACEPTIVE SELF-INJECTION]</ref> | |||
