Civil Society, Government Representatives, Elected Officials, Activists and the Private Sector Meet to Prioritize SRHR

The Global challenges and opportunities for Canadian leadership on SRHR: a multi-stakeholder conversation[1]brought together over 40 senior stakeholders representing Canadian and international civil society organizations, government representatives, publically elected officials, activists, and the private sector.

The goals of the SRHR meeting were:

• to develop a shared understanding of issues related to sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR), including global gaps in this area;
• to explore options for a collective approach to Canada’s SRHR policy over the next five years; and
• to build momentum for such an approach.
