Lancet Commisssion
May 2018 Report

Accelerate Progress—Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights for All

Ann M. Starrs, Alex Ezeh, Gary Barker, Alaka Basu, Jane T. Bertrand, Robert W. Blum, Awa M. Coll-Seck, Anand Grover, Laura Laski, Monica Roa, Zeba A. Sathar, Lale Say, Gamal I. Serour, Susheela Singh, Karin Stenberg, Marleen Temmerman, Ann Biddlecom, Anna Popinchalk, Cynthia Summers and Lori S. Ashford

The Guttmacher-Lancet Commission’s report lays out the scope of the unfinished sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) agenda; articulates a bold and evidence-based vision for SRHR that is grounded in human rights; provides an integrated, new definition of SRHR to guide this vision; and recommends a comprehensive package of essential SRHR interventions, going beyond the commonly recognized components of sexual and reproductive health. The report also highlights the benefits of investing in SRHR, not just from a health perspective, but also in terms of broader social and economic development.
