The 2024 US Presidential Election is already having profound impacts on the future of sexual and reproductive health and rights not only in the United States, but around the world. Politics have always had an outsized effect on SRHR issues – including abortion and contraceptive access, gender-affirming care, and HIV prevention and treatment services. More recently, the White House’s retreat from multilateralism and distrust of international human rights frameworks is resulting in rollbacks not only in the US but globally at an unprecedented speed. There is nonetheless room to catalyze a new generation of SRHR protections, advancements, and legal reforms. This panel will explicitly consider this political moment – discussing areas to push forward, lines to hold, and opportunities for global solidarity in SRHR.

This virtual event, “Advancing Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights: Moving Forward post-the 2024 US Election,” will take place on Wednesday, March 12th, at 9:00 am PDT/12:00 pm EDT/5:00 pm CET.

The dialogue will be moderated by IIGH Director Sofia Gruskin. 

The webinar is hosted by the USC Institute on Inequalities in Global Health.
