The Public Health Agency of Sweden has been commissioned to produce a national population study on sexual and reproductive health rights (SRHR). This is intended to help the Government create better and more effective ways of attaining the goals of public health policy on sexuality and reproductive health. The focus is to be on SRHR as a determining health factor from a public health, equality and gender equality perspective. The study will also shed light on the prevalence of sexual and other violence and its consequences for SRHR.
