May 28th, 2015
The International Day of Action for Women?s Health, May 28th, has been commemorated by women ?s health advocates and their communities since 1987 and has been crucial in the Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) movement building.
May 28 provides a great opportunity to remind our government leaders that Women?s Health Matters.
This year?s campaign underscores the gravity of ensuring that post-2015 comprehensively addresses women and girls? SRHR through highlighting the extreme consequences resulting from a narrow approach to women?s health, in the form of the institutional violence condoned and perpetuated by the State through the denial of sexual and reproductive health services and rights.
