Areas of work
SRH and HRP work collaboratively with partners across the world to shape global thinking on sexual and reproductive health by providing new ideas and insights.
We work together to enable high-impact research, inform WHO norms and standards, support research capacity strengthening in low- and middle-income settings, and facilitate the uptake of innovations and new information – including through digital technologies and the research and development of new medicines and devices. An ethical, human rights–based approach that aims to reduce gender inequalities is integrated throughout our work.
We strive for a world where human rights that enable sexual and reproductive health are safeguarded, and where all people have access to quality and affordable sexual and reproductive health information and services.
