1.4 Process of Developing the District FP CIP The process of developing the district Family Planning Costed Implementation Plan started with a comprehensive desk review to systematically understand the conceptual issues around family planning in general and Yumbe District in particular. The process entailed wider involvement and consultation of key stakeholders. At district level, stakeholders were drawn from the District Council, District Health Team, District Planning Unit, FP Development Partners, cultural and religious leaders, private sector, community volunteers and civil society organizations. All lower local governments were represented in the District Technical Planning Committee for their inputs. Data for the district FP CIP was informed by both secondary and primary data collected through: (a) desk reviews, (b) meetings with technical staff (c) district level key informant interviews, (d) lower level local government consultative meetings, and (e) community and health facility visits.
