The Contraceptive Security Index is a powerful tool for raising awareness about contraceptive security (CS) and the interrelationships between program components, different sectors, and program outcomes. At the national and international levels, the index can be used to set priorities, and to plan and advocate to support policies and other interventions that promote progress toward CS. At the country level, it can help identify areas of relative strength and weakness to help stakeholders target their resources more effectively and appropriately.
