The results of the 1982 Zaire Contraceptive Prevalence Survey are presented. The methodology and scope of the survey are first described. Information is included on the characteristics of those surveyed; nuptiality, fertility, and desired family size; contraceptive knowledge, use, and services; and the health status of the population. The need for further information on methods of contraception acceptable to a traditional, predominantly Catholic population is noted.
