Release of Team-up data
31 March 2025

The TEAM-UP Survey dataset was generated from the project titled; “Re-Examining Traditional Method Use: Desperation or Innovation? New Evidence on Traditional Contraceptive Methods in DRC, Ghana, Kenya and Nigeria” (TEAM-UP). This dataset contains data on socio-economic, demographic, contraceptive use and fertility behaviours of women aged 15-49 years in specific settings in the four study countries. The main focus of the data is to examine the effect of key survey methodological innovations on the estimation of traditional and modern contraceptive prevalence, and understanding the dynamics of contraceptive use. This dataset is available for use by researchers, policy makers and programmers, and can help address various research and programmatic questions or gaps. The project was led by the African Institute for Development Policy (AFIDEP) in collaboration with the Regional Institute for Population Studies at the University of Ghana, Akena Associates (Nigeria), College of Medicine at the University of Ibadan (Nigeria), Department of Population and Development Studies at the University of Kinshasa (DRC), Population and Health Research Institute (DRC) and University of Portsmouth (United Kingdom). It was supported by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation under grant INV-006353.
