WGNRR Africa works to coordinate and support grassroots initiatives aimed at creating an environment where all people across Africa are able to fulfil their SRHR including their right to make informed decision about their own body, sex and sexuality, and as if and when to have children (ICPD…); right to universal access to sexual and reproductive health services and information (SDG3.7, 3.8 and SDG 5.6).
We champion the Rights-based approach on SRH with a grassroots partnership base through a reproductive justice framework
Sexual and Reproductive Health Rights (SRHR) are human rights. The right to the highest attainable standard of health includes gender equality in health, and sexual and reproductive health. The essence of our right-based approach through a reproductive justice framework is to promote the freedom of choice and full access to SRH services and information by organizing and empowering women, girls and their communities to challenge structural power inequalities. We support the use of human rights accountability mechanism to highlight SRHR violations and hold duty bearers accountable for not fulfilling their human rights obligations.
