Description:

The project aims to address the barriers that affect the sexual and reproductive health status and full enjoyment of rights of women and girls, with a focus on migrants in Bolivia, Colombia, Dominican Republic, Guyana, Honduras, and Peru. The project will seek to strengthen capacities among ministry of health employees, as well as health practitioners, by providing training on health information, surveillance and monitoring systems, gender-sensitive health services planning, and delivery of sexual and reproductive health services. In parallel, it will deliver workshops and comprehensive sexuality education to enhance knowledge among beneficiaries regarding their sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) and increase their capacity to advocate for their rights. The project will organize awareness campaigns for community members and leaders on harmful gender-related norms and practices. Finally, it will provide technical support to governments and key stakeholders, including women elected officials, to develop, implement and enforce evidence-based SRHR public policies and strategies, in addition to providing training to civil society organizations, such as women’s rights organizations, to increase their capacity to advocate for the equal enjoyment of their rights.
