Sexual and Reproductive Health Matters

Scope

Sexual and Reproductive Health Matters ( SRHM) promotes sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) globally through its journal and 'more than a journal' activities. The Sexual and Reproductive Health Matters (SRHM) journal, formerly Reproductive Health Matters (RHM), is a peer-reviewed, international journal that explores emerging, neglected and marginalised topics and themes across the field of sexual and reproductive health and rights. It aims to publish original, relevant, and contemporary research, particularly from a feminist perspective, that can help inform the development of policies, laws and services to fulfil the rights and meet the sexual and reproductive health needs of people of all ages, gender identities and sexual orientations. SRHM publishes work that engages with fundamental dilemmas and debates in SRHR, highlighting multiple perspectives, acknowledging differences, and searching for new forms of consensus. SRHM strongly encourages research that explores experiences, values, information and issues from the point of view of those whose lives are affected. Key topics addressed in SRHM include (but are not limited to) abortion, family planning, contraception, female genital mutilation, HIV and other STIs, human papillomavirus (HPV), maternal health, SRHR in humanitarian settings, gender-based violence, young people, gender, sexuality and sexual rights.
