ADVOCACY STRATEGY; Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights Coalition (PISCCA)
Despite various efforts, there are persistent challenges - unequal access to healthcare, violence against women, lack of protection of the rights of women, discrimination against the girl child, among others. SRHR remains a controversial and contentious topic in Uganda’s social, legal and policy environment in both formal and informal spaces. This is attributed to a number of competing approaches in religious, cultural and legal/policy debates. There are wide range of SRHR issues such as access to family planning, sexuality education, adolescent health, teenage pregnancies, unsafe abortion, maternal mortality and morbidity, sexual orientation gender identity and expression, sex work, Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) including HIV, child abuse, Gender-Based Violence, sexual abuse
and exploitation; that constitute serious public health, human rights and social equity issues that affect thousands of girls and women in Uganda.
This Advocacy Strategy therefore seeks to set a framework for influencing policies and practices that lead to the promotion of Sexual and Reproductive Health Rights in the project implementation districts. The advocacy strategy will be implemented at both local government level and at national level.
