The right to sexual and reproductive health
March 2007
Access to sexual and reproductive health services is vital in preventing unnecessary deaths of both men and women. Yet governments and health organisations are still failing to prioritise spending on these services.
Improving access to health services is often contentious. Medical developments can bring public health policy into conflict with religious ideologies and traditional practices. Just as married people need access to good sexual and reproductive health services, so too do teenagers, gay men, disabled people, sex workers, drug users and people having sex outside marriage.
This media briefing explains how journalists can play a key role in getting important sexual and reproductive issues debated publicly and critically examine whether research reflects the reality on the ground.
