Exploring gaps in monitoring and evaluation of male engagement in family planning.

Male engagement is becoming more common in family planning (FP) strategies and interventions, yet effective monitoring and evaluation (M&E) of this approach lags. This review sought to understand how male engagement in FP is defined, identify gaps in M&E of male engagement and make recommendations. We conducted key informant interviews and a desk review of peer-reviewed articles and gray literature, including national FP strategies and policies.
