This #May28 – International Day of Action for Women’s Health, our actions and demands were strong reminders of the centrality of the SRHRJ, and bodily autonomy of every women, girl, and gender-diverse person within every election, development agenda, and action plan.
The May 28 Campaign Report is now being developed. Please share your activities with us and be featured in this year’s Report. Email them to communications@wgnrr.org.

Continue mobilizing, taking action, and amplifying demands for SRHRJ
|

While we conclude the May 28 Campaign mobilizations, may we remain vigilant in this critical moment in history as crises and injustices continue to threaten SRHRJ around the world. Everyday, may we take collective action at every opportunity – be it through human rights mechanisms, multilateral spaces, or national elections – to remind global leaders of their commitment to a world where SRHR is fulfilled, protected, and promoted.
We extend our gratitude to all the organizations, activists, artists, healthcare providers, and leaders alike who have made #May28 International Day of Action for Women’s Health a success!

Thank you and may we come together again in future campaigns!
