   The human rights of women include their right to have control over and decide freely and responsibly on matters related to their sexuality including sexual and reproductive health, free of coercion, discrimination and violence. Equal relationships between women and men in matters of sexual relations and reproduction, including full respect for the integrity of the person, require mutual respect, consent and shared responsibility for sexual behaviour and its consequences.

      How much does abortion cost?- Invitation to ASTRA Network's panel on abortion at AWID Forum 2012 :: 2012-04-05 14:05

    Central European countries have only recently moved from centralized system of health-care funding and delivery to a range of institutional and financial arrangements. The different paths chosen have implied different results in terms of available resources, internal efficiency, health-care inequality, and the corresponding incidence of public expenditures. Health systems often fail to provide their citizens with access to sexual and reproductive rights and health. The economy is structured in ways which exclude and adversely include people according to their sexual and gender identities and relationships. Gender based inequalities deprive women of their basic rights (including sexual and reproductive rights), disempower them and constrain their access to resources, opportunities and security.
