HIV, sexual and reproductive health: Understanding and claiming rights. Skills-building workshop. Basic curriculum

Ipas developed a monitoring tool with simple benchmarks that NGOs can use to assess progress toward meeting MDGs 3 (promoting gender equality and women's empowerment), 5 (improving maternal health) and 6 (combating HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria) in relation to HIV and reproductive health and rights. The purpose of workshops based on this curriculum is to ensure that participants have a basic understanding of sexual and reproductive rights and to enable them to identify rights violations in relation to reproductive health care. The particular focus is on violations related to HIV, but the material has proved to be very useful for a more general audience interested in sexual and reproductive rights.
