1. Introduction At a time when many European countries are concerned about their low birth ratea and are engaged in political diacuaaion about ways to increase,thm, it seems appropriate to say a few words about rhe general concept of family planning, which is also one of the underlying themes of our study. In a situation of unemployment, there is increasing hostility towards migrants in several European councriea. Arguments on the lines of there are too many of them are by no means uncamman. In Fact, the whole queation of migrants and family planning has become a highly sensitive political issue. As far as this report is concerned, we should like to expreaa support for a concept of family planning that respects the right of women and men to decide by themselves when they wish to have children and how laany. The teak of the family planning worker is thus to guarantee that right for both nationals and migrants. Realizing that little is known about the needs of migrants in relation to family planning and sexuality, it was hoped that the two surveys would shed same light on the subject, not in terns of merely identifying another group at risk but of generating ideas on how to improve the health services ao that they alao benefit migrants.
