| Description | Contraception Policy Atlas Europe is an online interactive map that scores 46 European countries in their access to contraceptive supplies, counselling and the provision of online information on contraception. The Czech Republic and Slovakia have been among the worse countries of the Atlas, and in 2022, they occupied 36th, respectively 38th position in the Atlas. The trend in European countries is to reimburse contraception within the national health systems, at least for young people until 19 (or 25) years and for vulnerable groups (unemployed, low-income). However, the Czech Republic and Slovakia have progressed in neither of these categories. It is necessary for both countries to take steps to remove financial and economic barriers so that all women can access all types of contraception, including long-acting reversible contraception. |
