Sex og Politikk - The Norwegian Association for Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights
Sex og Politikk is a member organization consisting of affiliated organizations, institutions and individual members. Sex og Politikk was founded in 1969 and has since its establishment been a main organisation in Norway working for sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR), particularly in the promotion of sexuality education where we provide the most used materials for use in primary and secondary schools in Norway "Uke 6", which since 2019 has been used at more than 40% of schools in Norway. We further prioritize work for abortion and SOGIE rights as well as securing access to safe contraceptives and sexual health and rights for the elderly. The organisation works both nationally and internationally to further sexual rights, including a particular focus on indigenous populations, with a particular programme on sexual health for Sami people, the only indigenous population in Europe. The organisation works for the development of better health care services, and to safeguard rights linked to sexuality and reproductive health, both in a national and international context. These areas are very important in strengthening women's rights and also for working towards gender equality and poverty reduction internationally. Political advocacy including through conferences and by organising an All Party Parliamentary Group on SRHR are important avenues to implement our work.
