- Description
- This article evaluates the progress made at the UN in addressing issues of sexual orientation in the decade since the case of Toonen v. Australia. It surveys the body of work done by the UN’s expert human rights mechanisms to develop international standards and hold states accountable for a range of human rights violations based on .sexual orientation. It analyzes some of the challenges for future advocacy and argues that framing sexual-orientation-related rights within a broader concept of sexual rights, including the right to sexual health, may offer important opportunities for overcoming some of the conceptual, political and practical obstacles encountered within the UN system.

- Description
- This volume reflects the potential of a new perspective that allows for a more adequate analysis of transnational activities, by looking at the lives and work of women’s activists in informal border-crossings, ephemeral NGOs, the lower management of established international organizations, and other global networks. By pointing out cultural hierarchies, the vicissitudes of translation and re-interpretation, and the ambiguity of intercultural exchange, this volume demonstrates the potential of transnational history.

- Description
- This document suggests how international human rights standards might be applied to issues regarding unwanted pregnancy and abortion-related care. Part 1 introduces the international sources of human rights, explaining how international conventions are adopted and how their implementation by States is monitored. It also describes the legal status of international consensus statements. Part 2 introduces the right to health as defined in international treaties and describes the sexual and reproductive rights which are commonly acknowledged by legal scholars and international agencies. Part 3 provides suggestions on how NGOs and health providers can increase awareness about, and promote compliance with, sexual and reproductive health rights, particularly regarding unwanted pregnancy and abortion-related care. Part 4 presents case studies demonstrating possible violations of women’s reproductive rights.
