Abstract
- Australia has made significant progress in sexual and reproductive health rights in recent years, decriminalizing access to abortion, enabling telehealth services, and introducing safe access zones. However, the global context of reproductive rights has seen considerable erosion in other countries. The current reproductive rights backlash is not just against abortion, but against the concept of gender and human rights. Australia must continue to protect and advance sexual and reproductive health care, ensuring equitable access and embedding abortion throughout health systems. [Extracted from the article]
