This one-day conference will provide opportunities for professional development and networking across research, clinical management and prevention, to ensure best practice and policy. The day’s program focuses on strengthening the linkages between sexual health and reproductive health services and rights. The program will explore population-based approaches to sexual and reproductive health particular for those affected by violence and LGBTQI people. We will also examine SRH across the life span and an integrated approach to the provision of contraception and abortion care. The conference will involve short presentations from national and international experts who will provide a vision for the future of reproductive health. This will be followed by panels and debates with key stakeholders who will explore the merits of these insights for policy and practice in Australian and New Zealand contexts.
