FROM CHANGE

TO IMPACT.

SheDecides convenes, unites and mobilises a diverse group of change makers in SRHR across the world, to stand up and take action for the right to decide.

Why now? Why are we needed?

Being able to decide when and if to become pregnant is still a global challenge, and millions of people do
not have a say in what happens to their bodies. While some great progress has been made around the world, sexual and reproductive rights are being pushed back, made invisible, de-prioritised and defunded.

“We will only achieve gender equality when every person has the right to decide about their body, life and future. Without question.”
