Welcome to WAS Conversations Session 4, a monthly series dedicated to advance sexual health and rights for all.
This time in collaboration with HRP, which is the main instrument within the United Nations system (UNDP / UNFPA / UNICEF / WHO / WORLD BANK) for research in human reproduction, bringing together policy-makers, scientists, health care providers, clinicians, consumers and community representatives to identify and address priorities for research to improve sexual and reproductive health.
Session 4 will center on the new Sexual Health chapter of the ICD-11, that reflects sexual rights, evidence-based considerations and advances in depathologizations. We hope you will enjoy the presentations by experts who participated in this historical change.
We also invite you to watch Sessions 1, 2, 3 in ourYouTube channel
