| description |
Botswana has had a stable democratic
government and good governance since independence in 1966.
With a sustained high average economic growth (about 9
percent) fueled by the diamond mining industry, it is the
only country in Africa listed among the 13 'economic
miracles' of the world for 1960-2005. The total
fertility rate remains high in Sub-Saharan Africa, with 25
countries showing a rate greater than 5.0. In contrast,
Botswana experienced the greatest fertility decline in the
region during 1980-2006, with the total fertility rate
decreasing from 7.1 in 1981 to 3.2 in 2006. The Botswana
national family planning program, judged the strongest in
Africa, contributed to this decline. The government strongly
committed to meeting family planning needs, integrated
maternal and child health/family planning (MCH/FP) and
sexually transmitted infection (STI) services in 1973. The
government spends about 18 percent of its total budget on
health, a higher proportion than the Abuja
declaration's target of 15 percent. |
