Abstract
The study, carried out in 2000, aimed to obtain primary descriptive data about access to and application of reproductive-health-related medical knowledge in India and Yemen. Using a qualitative design involving semi-structured interviews, forty-one doctors working in obstetrics, gynaecology, general practice and family planning services were studied. The key findings in relation to libraries and information sources, courses and continuing education, and changing practice are briefly discussed.
