Doubling Down on Anti-Racism Efforts in Sexual and Reproductive Health: A Call to Action
As we join together to commemorate the International Day Against Racial Discrimination, it becomes increasingly apparent that we must address the lingering colonial legacies within the realm of sexual and reproductive health (SRH).

If neither school nor parents talk about sex education to young people and adolescents, the situation will be deplorable.

Back when I used to deliver sex education workshops in schools, I always made time for anonymous questions at the end of a session. This gave students the chance to write down any questions which weren’t answered in the workshop.
