This longitudinal study, with the provision of family planning services integrated into the whole maternal care continuum, a sufficiently long observation time and repeated measurements, will make it possible to better understand the timeline and the factors influencing women's decision-making on the use of post-partum family planning services. The results will help to increase the body of knowledge regarding the impact of maternal and child health services integration on the utilization of post-partum family planning taking into account the specific context of sub-Saharan Africa French speaking countries where such information is very needed.
