The importance of insufficient national data on sexual and reproductive health and rights in international databases
Summary: Looking at SRHR as an isolated set of elements, as is the current practice, does not do justice to the needs and rights of people and communities and may be one of the reasons why challenges remain in the attainment of SRHR for all.

| description | Summary: Looking at SRHR as an isolated set of elements, as is the current practice, does not do justice to the needs and rights of people and communities and may be one of the reasons why challenges remain in the attainment of SRHR for all. SRHR Infographic snapshots were developed for all 194 WHO Member States and included 120 indicators covering a broad range of policy, health systems and service delivery interventions. The snapshots were created using data less than 10 years old publicly available in data repositories maintained by international and global agencies. Data availability was not consistent across countries with low and lower-middle income countries having higher data availability (71%) compared to high income countries (40%). SRHR data that is easily accessible and consistently reported can improve accountability and opportunities for learning to improve people-centred approaches to accelerate the attainment of SRHR for all. |
