Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) are issues of global concern. Sexuality and reproduction are core aspects of human existence, and shape the lives of people in all parts of the world. As conditions change, for example through globalization and socio-economic development, new challenges and opportunities emerge.
In this course, we will introduce you to some of the main themes in SRHR today – Youth Sexuality and Health, Contraception and Fertility, Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) and HIV/AIDS, Maternal Health, and Violence in Sexual and Reproductive Contexts. We will examine both underlying issues and questions that are relevant all over the world, as well as challenges that occur in specific settings.
You will meet our international team of faculty members and experts, who will highlight the dynamics and challenges inherent in these themes by examining them within the context of current global policy issues, such as sustainability, gender equality, social justice, democracy/participation, and the rights perspective. You will also get a unique opportunity to explore and discuss the course themes with fellow participants from around the world.
Selected lectures and
seminars will be given by our international team of faculty members, who have worked with and lectured on SRHR issues within a broad range of contexts. The course is led by Anette Agardh from the Faculty of Medicine at Lund University, Sweden.
The week by week syllabus will be announced in August 2014. The course will start with an overview session that introduces the main themes and defines the terminology used in the course. The subsequent weekly topics will cover Youth Sexuality and Health, Contraception and Fertility, Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) and HIV/AIDS, Maternal Health and Violence in Sexual and Reproductive Contexts.
Questions related to sexuality and reproduction are intimately linked to health, well-being and human rights. In this course, you will gain a unique opportunity to explore the field of SRHR together with participants from around the world, and to reflect upon themes and issues that are of global relevance.
