One in five women worldwide live with a disability, often in low- and middle-income countries, and 220 million persons with disability are young. Despite effort for fulfilling the Right to Health stated in the Convention of the Right of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), social and gender norms may limit the access to inclusive information and quality services regarding Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR). Social Behavior Change (SBC) can play a pivotal role in addressing structural, attitudinal and communication barriers to SRHR services. We will present a new “Inclusive SBC for SRHR” practical guide, sharing experiences and stories, and exploring how to use inclusive SBC in SRHR to dismantle stigma related to the intersection of disability and SRHR.
The session is in English with sign-language translation.
