In this report, we describe how human rights can help to shape laws, policies, programmes, and projects in relation to contraceptive information and services. Applying a human rights perspective and recognising the International Conference on Population and Development and Millennium Development Goal commitments to universal access to reproductive health including family planning, we support measurement of unmet need for family planning that encompasses more groups than has been the case until recently. We outline how human rights can be used to identify, reduce, and eliminate barriers to accessing contraception; the ways in which human rights can enhance laws and policies; and governments' legal obligations in relation to contraceptive information and services. We underline the crucial importance of accountability of states and identify some of the priorities for making family planning available that are mandated by human rights.
在本报告中,我们描述了人权如何有助于制定与避孕信息和服务相关的法律、政策、方案和项目。我们采用人权视角,并承认国际人口与发展会议和千年发展目标做出的普及生殖健康包括计划生育的承诺,支持衡量计划生育未满足需求的方法,涵盖比最近更广泛的群体。我们概述了如何利用人权来确定、减少和消除获取避孕的障碍;人权如何增强法律和政策;以及政府在避孕信息和服务方面的法律义务。我们强调国家问责制的至关重要性,并确定了一些由人权授权的提供计划生育的优先事项。
