Stephanie Chung
I am a doctoral student in Maternal and Child Health specializing in epidemiology and international family planning. I am interested in medical barriers to family planning access and utilization, especially at the facility level and during the provider-patient interaction. Overall, I hope to address barriers to reproductive autonomy and explore autonomy-based approaches to family planning measurement. My work at the CPC focuses on improving quality of care in family planning service delivery in Kenya.
In addition to my work with the CPC and in the MCH PhD program, I am also an FHI360-UNC fellow for 2022-2023, and an Early Career - Youth Fellow on the Performance Monitoring and Evaluation Working Group for FP2030.
Research interests: family planning service provision, quality of care, mixed-methods research, medical barriers to family planning use
