CALL FOR PAPERS

SRHM is now welcoming submissions for the 2024 Open Issue.
This year, the journal will be publishing a single issue containing articles across the breadth of topics relating to SRHR rather than launching separate themed issues each with individual calls for papers.

We hope that this year's Open Issue will bring documentation and analysis of progressive examples of upholding SRHR, as well as addressing critical gaps in the field:

Coalition building across the ICPD agenda and political obstruction of sexual and reproductive autonomy
