The Implementation Guide for the Medical eligibility criteria for contraceptive use (MEC) and Selected practice recommendations for contraceptive use (SPR) is part of a global initiative to translate guidance into practice, through implementation science principles. The Implementation Guide is designed to provide a structured process to aid countries’ efforts to incorporate the World Health Organization Medical eligibility criteria for contraceptive use (MEC) and Selected practice recommendations for contraceptive use (SPR) (and their updates) into national family planning guidance. The Toolkit provides the practical resources needed to achieve the tasks in the Implementation Guide.
