"If you're having your sexual experiences, but at the back of your mind, you're worried about an unsupportable pregnancy, you are worried about an STI, those things limit the kind of possibilities, the kind of pleasure that you can experience." Learn more from @drtlaleng here:


Today is the #InternationalDayofEducation. Sexual education should be a crucial part of any curriculum, and be taught in an #inclusive and #sexpositive way to encourage healthy attitudes to #sexualhealth, pleasure and rights.


"The more time you take to know your body, the better your chances are of being able to... talk and communicate that to your partner. " Learn more about the benefits of #selfpleasure from @drtlaleng here:


The GAB's @BoydellVicky has edited "Technologies of Reproduction Across the Lifecourse - Expanding Reproductive Studies" - a book that aims to break down disciplinary silos to ensure that power structures that shape #reproductive life are not reproduced. Read more here:

The @WHO has updated its Family Planning Handbook, providing #SRHR professionals with crucial information about contraceptive options, such as #familyplanning services during emergencies, access to self-administered contraceptives & the use of digital technologies by providers.


A great initiative: The Irish health service @HSELive recently launched resources to help parents talk to children and young people about #relationships & #sexuality.


Universal access to quality, affordable #healthcare including sexual and reproductive health services is vital to safeguard #sexualrights #InternationalUniversalHealthCoverageDay


#Sexualrights are #humanrights & the @UN's slogan for this year’s #HumanRightsDay "Dignity, Freedom, & Justice for All" is central to the mission of the GAB. Today we celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights & reflect on the work left to do.


A new Local Government Association (@LGAcomms) report shows that despite skyrocketing attendance at #sexual & reproductive health services, services are facing funding cuts. It is crucial that people have access to the #sexualhealthservices they need.

Did you know that #sexpositivity can have an impact on your mental wellbeing? @PsychCentral writes that "With openness and a nonjudgmental approach, sex positivity embraces the diversity of sexual expression".
