What happens when the most pressing human rights issues are the least measured?
As demographers, researchers, and advocates, we know what gets counted counts - and some violations remain underrepresented.
Hosted as a side event to the International Population Conference, this session introduces reproductive violence as a vital and under-recognised dimension of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR).
We’ll explore its potential as a conceptual tool for advocacy, accountability, and reform, and dive together into the practical challenge of defining, measuring, and addressing it through services, policies, and data systems.
