Health Sexual & reproductive rights (SRHR)
Background
SheDecides is a global political movement advancing bodily autonomy and sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). It brings together Champions from governments, civil society, youth, media, culture, academia and philanthropy. Its Support Unit is an autonomous secretariat hosted by the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF).

Abortion Archives preserves and shares the visual, material and political histories of abortion rights movements worldwide, including through the POWER TO DECIDE exhibition.

For its tenth anniversary, SheDecides is preparing a creative activation at its CSW71 Champions Convening in New York, planned for the week commencing 15 March 2027. The audience includes Champions, governments, donors and strategic partners. SheDecides will confirm the event date, venue and creative direction.

Research coverage, material quantities, text lengths and digital outputs will be agreed at inception within the available days and budget.
