Barriers to Reproductive Health and Sexual Rights

What Will You Learn?

• You will learn how socio-cultural stigma, including harmful myths, taboos, and rigid gender norms, creates shame and silence around reproductive and sexual health, preventing people from seeking information or services.
• You will learn how economic inaccessibility, due to high costs of services, contraceptives, and menstrual products, alongside poverty and transportation issues, makes essential SRH care unaffordable for many.
• You will learn about the impact of limited service access, including geographical distance, inadequate facilities (especially WASH), and insufficient numbers of trained healthcare providers, on individuals' ability to obtain SRH services.
