- Abstract
This study investigated the percentage of men actively involved in family planning programs across Central Java from 2018 to 2020. It relied on secondary data obtained from the Central Java Provincial Statistics Agency for those years. The data, including the number of male family planning participants (condoms and vasectomy) and the number of fertile-aged couples actively participating. The results revealed a decrease in male participation at the provincial level, dropping from 3.4% in 2018 to 3.1% in 2020. Looking at individual districts and cities within Central Java, the data showed significant variations. In 2018, Surakarta City had the highest participation rate (13.34%), whereas Brebes Regency had the lowest (0.60%). This pattern continued in subsequent years, with Surakarta City maintaining the highest rate (5.97% in 2019) and Brebes Regency consistently having the lowest (0.33% in 2019). Interestingly, in 2020, Magelang City took the lead with the highest participation rate (15.54%), while Brebes District remained the lowest (0.90%). In conclusion, male participation in family planning programs across Central Java remains significantly below the national average. Districts and cities with participation rates below 5% require targeted interventions to improve engagement.
