This special issue of brings together papers examining how sexuality, gender, health and human rights have become increasing visible and highly contested within global health. The papers included here question and explore the often contradictory processes through which global equity-seeking populations negotiate pleasure and danger across multiple arenas (including HIV and AIDS, LGBTQ+ health and rights, intersex rights, sex worker rights, realities of refugee and displaced persons, and gender-based violence) and in diverse geographic contexts (Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Canada, Ghana, Haiti, Kenya, Mauritania, Nigeria, Peru, Rwanda, and the USA). These papers examine emerging questions about the gaps and limits in current legal structures that do not legitimize sexual rights as fundamental human rights, the role of agency (and of bounded agency) needed to navigate constrained contexts, ways in which community-based solidarity efforts shape access to sexual rights, and how sexual pleasure and consent are experienced and negotiated in rights-constrained contexts. The interdisciplinary authors included in this collection showcase how the ranging definitions of sexual rights, their enactment, and expressions of pleasure and danger are inextricably entangled with local contexts and cultural systems that underpin not only people's lived experience but simultaneously become central topics for global health research, policy and practice.
本期特刊汇集了探讨性、性别、健康和人权如何在全球卫生领域日益凸显并引起激烈争议的论文。这些论文质疑并探索了寻求全球公平的人群在多个领域（包括艾滋病毒和艾滋病、LGBTQ+健康和权利、双性人权利、性工作者权利、难民和流离失所者的现实以及基于性别的暴力）和不同地理背景下（阿富汗、孟加拉国、加拿大、加纳、海地、肯尼亚、毛里塔尼亚、尼日利亚、秘鲁、卢旺达和美国）协商快乐和危险的经常相互矛盾的过程。这些论文探讨了当前法律结构中存在的差距和限制的新问题，这些结构没有将性权利合法化为人的基本权利，以及在受限制的情况下需要有机构（和有限的机构）来进行导航，社区为基础的团结努力如何塑造获得性权利的途径，以及在权利受限的情况下如何体验和协商性愉悦和同意。本集收录的跨学科作者展示了性权利的广泛定义、其实施以及快乐和危险的表达如何与地方背景和文化体系密不可分地交织在一起，这些体系不仅支撑着人们的生活体验，而且同时成为全球卫生研究、政策和实践的核心主题。
