| 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. |
