BACKGROUND

[/fusion_text][fusion_text]Data or information alone will not transform outcomes. Data, which are simple measures of characteristics of people and things, have little inherent meaning or value. Analysis of the data enables the identification of patterns, thereby creating information. Finally, the use of information to generate recommendations, rules for action, and behaviour change signifies the creation of knowledge that is used to make decisions and change human behaviour. The literature on health information systems in FP is replete with complaints of the neglect of existing information, yet remarkably little is known regarding the motivators behind the use of such generated knowledge to improve the use of FP services in many countries especially the low income nations like Nigeria. This study is therefore being conducted to bridge the knowledge gap. Through this study we hope to identify what determines if family planning information that is collected through routine data collection is acted upon or not. The overall goal of this research is to gain information that will improve use of family planning data and ultimately improve health care delivery and health outcomes[/fusion_text][fusion_title margin_top=”” margin_bottom=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=”” size=”4″ content_align=”left” style_type=”default” sep_color=””]
