Common use of Togo Clause in Contracts

Togo. Togo currently has an estimated population of 6 million, with approximately 41% under the age of 15. While there has been some improvement in infant and maternal mortality rates, accessing quality RH services in Togo remains difficult, particularly outside of urban centers. Unmet need for contraception currently stands at 40.5%. The TFR has declined somewhat between 2005 and 2012 to 4.7 children per woman, but the CPR for modern methods remains quite low at 13%. Given the high unmet need for contraception and the continued low CPR in the country, it is not surprising that PAC services remain an important part of overall reproductive health care for women (Box 11). Abortion is illegal in Togo, except to save the life of a woman or in cases of fetal impairment, rape, or incest.5 Estimates of the Population size (in millions)1 6.0 Under 15 years of age1 41% Infant Mortality Rate per 1,000 live births1 78 Maternal Mortality Ratio per 100,000 live births2 300 Total Fertility Rate1 4.7 Contraceptive Prevalence Rate, modern methods1 13% Unmet need1 40.5% 1Population Reference Bureau, “World Population Data Sheet 2012,” accessed July 26, 2013, ▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇/pdf12/2012-population-data- sheet_eng.pdf.
