Abstract
This brief report details early results from a rapid population control demonstration project being implemented in the tribal belt of central India. PSF (Project Small Family) process is a newly designed methodology where the responsibility of seeking and adopting family planning methods is shifted to participating women. The reward program is designed to encourage model family norms in a voluntary and verifiable way. Early results are extremely encouraging and are approaching zero population growth in a very fertile group with original TFR (Total Fertility Rate) in excess of 3.0. This group has already achieved a TFR of less than 1.5 in a short duration of nine months. On-going pilot projects are being funded by Project Small Family Inc. (PSF) a non-profit organization based in Massachusetts USA. Local implementation is being done by a Chhindwada MP (India) based non-profit organization named I.D.Y.W.C (Institute for Development of Youth Women and Children). The results are as supplied by I.D.Y.W.C. There is high degree of confidence in the results because of random field audits conducted by PSF representatives. (excerpt)
