  • The 66 Organisations Working to Improve Human and Environmental Health Undersigned the Rt Hon. Boris Johnson MP 10 Downing Stree
    The 66 organisations working to improve human and environmental health undersigned The Rt Hon. Boris Johnson MP 10 Downing Street London SW1A 2AA Dear Prime Minister 30 June 2021 Climate change leadership: an opportunity to champion women and girls There is increasing evidence that gender-responsive climate action is foundational to climate change adaptation and resilience, and to conserving biodiversity. At COP25, Parties to UNFCCC agreed an Enhanced Lima work programme on gender and its gender action plan. At COP26 we must build on this by recognising the importance of removing: 1. Barriers preventing women and girls from accessing rights-based, high-quality family planning services, and 2. Barriers preventing girls from accessing school, feeling safe whilst there, and completing all levels of their education. Highlighting these barriers and solutions to their removal at COP26 would build on recent UK Government efforts. For example, in February 2021, HM Treasury published the landmark report The Economics of Biodiversity: The Dasgupta Review, which highlighted the importance of removing these barriers. In November 2020, the UK Government voted in favour of the International Union for Conservation of Nature motion, Importance for the conservation of nature of removing barriers to rights-based voluntary family planning. Globally the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change noted, in its Fifth Assessment Report, the value of family planning, and the UN Environment Programme’s fifth Global Environment Outlook calls for greater access to family planning programmes along with women’s education, as does UNEP’s 2021 report Making Peace with Nature. So whilst climate scientists, policy makers and the world’s largest environmental network recognise the importance of removing these barriers, this has not yet translated into adequate resourcing from climate funding mechanisms.

  • Dear Chairman Coons
    Dear Chairman Coons - On behalf of the undersigned organizations, we respectfully urge you to support increased funding for international family planning and reproductive health programs and address policies that limit the effectiveness of these programs in the State, Foreign Operations and Related Programs FY 2022 Appropriations bill. For over 50 years, the United States investments in international family planning and reproductive health program, through bilateral programs, as well as through the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), have sought to address the unmet need for family planning and reproductive health services. While significant progress has been made, 218 million women in low- and middle- income countries continue to want to delay or prevent pregnancy but face significant barriers to using a modern method of contraception.1 Furthermore, an estimated 299,000 women in these countries die each year from pregnancy-related causes, including unsafe abortion, which continues to be a major cause of these unacceptably high maternal mortality rates.2 The burden of these challenges falls on Black and Brown women who live in low and middle income countries and face the most significant barriers to health care access in countries worldwide, due to systems that are rooted in and reinforce white supremacy, neocolonialism, and gender inequality. Investments in sexual and reproductive health support a number of foreign policy, development and humanitarian goals that are shared by the U.S. and the international community, such as improving

    President Joseph R. Biden The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington D.C., 20500 April 29, 2021 Re: Call for Executive Action on United States Abortion Restrictions on Foreign Aid Dear President Biden, We, the undersigned organizations, welcome your administration’s reengagement of the United States (US) with the UN Human Rights Council (HRC) and recommitment to promoting human rights. We also applaud you for revoking the Global Gag Rule (also known as the Mexico City Policy) within your first ten days in office, and now we ask you to go further to implement “the policy of the US to support women’s and girls’ sexual and reproductive health and rights in the US, as well as globally.” Therefore, in light of your administration’s response to the recommendations made to the US during the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) before the HRC in Geneva last November, we are writing to urge you to take further steps to implement the UPR recommendations made with regard to sexual and reproductive health and rights, including by taking executive and administrative action to ameliorate the harmful impact of US abortion restrictions on foreign aid, particularly the Helms Amendment, a nearly 50 year-old policy that must be congressionally repealed in its entirety. Recognizing the racist and neo-colonial roots of the Helms Amendment, we also urge the implementation of the recommendations made regarding racism and discrimination. These recommendations were made by 23 countries spanning across Asia, Africa, Latin America, Europe, and the Middle East and, if implemented, would positively impact access to sexual and reproductive health and rights, as well as the livelihood and wellbeing of persons experiencing discrimination.

She reflects on the importance of the underlying and social determinants of health and substantive equality for the realization of sexual and reproductive health rights and clarifies the nature of the legal framework that recognizes sexual and reproductive rights, with a focus on the right to sexual and reproductive health as an integral part of the right to health.
