HRP at 50: strengthening impact at country level

Overview

Since 1972, the UN cosponsored special programme, HRP, has pursued a vision of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) for all. This is the fourth in a series of stories to share key moments from HRP’s history and the impact of its work on advancing the attainment of SRHR.

Based in WHO’s Department for Sexual and Reproductive Health and Research, HRP is uniquely positioned to help translate research and normative guidance into action at the national level due to its extensive experience, convening power and network of collaborating centres and partners. This story describes examples of the impact of HRP’s work in a range of countries.
