She speaks out: Sexual and Reproductive Health stories around the world – Part 2

Women and girls’ voices need to be heard in the healthcare system and conversations about their Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR). Too often, many of us are left to navigate our bodily concerns on our own or face stigma. In this episode, Amal, Lauren and guest Amanda continue to share SRHR stories from women and girls around the world. They discuss young people’s SRHR experiences in the medical system, self-advocacy, and stigma surrounding sexual health and encounters. They share personal stories about their own health and rights and discuss strategies to make the SRHR space more inclusive of women and girls. SHE SOARS, funded by Global Affairs Canada, is the Sexual and reproductive Health and Economic empowerment Supporting Out-of-school Adolescent girls’ Rights and Skills project.
