We will build on learning and recommendations from a 2017 research report Let Me Decide and Thrive, produced in collaboration with the UN Special Rapporteur on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (the research focuses on the sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) of girls and young women with disabilities). This includes supporting the development of a global programme model that converts learning and recommendations into practical approaches for country office colleagues and partners.
Timeframe and/or implementation plan
Plan International UK will work with country and regional offices to support the development of the global programme model, including an initial write-shop in 2018, and once the model is contextualised and piloted, support its scale up in other countries where there is both a clear need and an expressed demand for practical solutions.
Plan International UK commits to working towards sexual and reproductive health and rights services that are gender-responsive, rights-based, adolescent- and youth-friendly, that are available and accessible to the most vulnerable and excluded adolescents and young people, including but not limited to migrants, children, adolescents and youth from ethnic minorities and indigenous groups, with disabilities and/or identifying as lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, intersex, questioning and other identities (LGBTIQ+).
Timeframe and/or implementation plan
This will be implemented as part of plans to contribute to the realisation of 100 Million Reasons, Plan International’s Global Strategy, by 2022, which we will monitor progress against, and in line with our internal approach to Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights.
