Why the International Day of Action for Women’s Health Celebrated?

28th May is the Day of Action for Women’s Health. Over 30 years, women’s rights advocates and allies in the sexual and reproductive health, SRHR movement worldwide have commemorated in diverse ways.

Every year, women, girls, advocates and allies have continued to take action and stand up for sexual and reproductive rights for what they are: an individual and inalienable part of our human rights.

Currently, when women’s human right and particularly sexual and reproductive rights continue to be systematically violated worldwide, mobilization both within and beyond our communities remains essential, in order to combat on our rights and advance sexual and reproductive justice for all.

The worldwide geopolitical context threatens to become increasingly regressive. It is more important than ever to denounce any attempts at curtailing women’s rights, including our human rights to decide to feel free on all aspects of our bodies, our sexualities, and our lives, free from coercion, discrimination, and violence.
