On the other hand, Colombia has seen a massive expansion of its family planning services in the past few decades, particularly that of Asociación Pro-bienestar de la Familia Colombiana (Profamilia), an affiiliate of the International Planned Parenthood Federation, which has sixty-six clinics and mobile health units, and accounts for nearly three-quarters of the country’s family planning capacity. As a result, fertility rate has fallen from 6 children per woman in the 1960s to just above replacement level (i.e. about 2 children per woman), as of 2017. This is largely due to increased literacy, family planning services, and urbanization in the country.[1] Meanwhile, homosexuality, gay marriage, and gender change are all legal in Colombia.[2]
