Human rights need to be upheld at the policy, service delivery, community and individual levels [1], however, given that clients interact with family planning programs most directly at the point of care, the service delivery level offers a useful starting point. The human rights of clients and providers manifest in many ways at the service delivery level—among other issues, limitations on types of contraception offered can lead to lack of informed choice, disrespectful treatment by health workers can lead to discrimination against clients, and lack of physical and logistical infrastructure can lead to supplies not being available for both the provider and client.
