Good sexual and reproductive health is important for quality of life for all people, yet there are myriad challenges to ensuring this for women and girls around the world.On this International Women's Day, we recognize the unique struggles women face in accessing contraception, protection from sexually transmitted infections, maternity care, safe abortion care, counselling and self-care tools. Taboos and fears among communities at large, friends and families, even women themselves, cast a negative light instead, creating barriers to women’s wellbeing.MSF has tackled this in increasingly diverse ways. Projects in Greece, Honduras and Zimbabwe have shown that strengthening women’s own agency and community support can work hand-in-hand to enable positive engagement with women’s sexual and reproductive health needs in a way that reverberates through the social fabric.In each of these countries, women, girls, men, parents and neighbours have a compelling story to share as they participate in and drive this change.Read more: http://bit.ly/3YJFt4l | Médecins Sans Frontières/ Doctors Without Borders (MSF)
