Why are sexual and reproductive health and rights important
The purpose of the Realising Rights consortium is to address the factors underlying the persistent low priority given to sexual and reproductive health and rights in policy and practice. The consortium brings together a multidisciplinary research and service delivery partnership to work with policy and advocacy constituencies.
Research themes include:measurement and mapping of mortbidities and social vulnerabilities; meeting rights through improving access to and rights of poor and socially-excluded people to sexual and reproductive health services and technologies; contextualising and operationalising rights at national and local level.
The website contains publications and information about research themes, news and events.
