Why have we launched this new title?

Research in the area of sexual and reproductive health is growing internationally, particularly among midwives. In a global perspective there is a huge interest in women’s health, which is mirrored in the millennium goals of the UN as well as in international declarations and agreements.

Sexual & Reproductive HealthCare (SRHC)

aims to take on the role as a contributor of new knowledge and evidence to representatives of the health care sector and society. The journal will present studies demonstrating sexual and reproductive health matters from a multifaceted perspective where the connection between these questions and the individuals’ rights will be illuminated.
