Nicholas Kristof writes on his Facebook Page:

"Spent the day in rural Congo Republic, visiting schools and clinics. Family planning is desperately needed here yet mostly absent. And a woman who wants contraceptives has to bring her husband to prove that he has consented — a huge disincentive. It's hard to see how one can lick poverty here if contraception isn't in the picture."
