Accessing sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services in Australia's regional, rural, and remote areas presents complex challenges. To better understand these challenges, we are undertaking a two-part research project with Deakin Rural Health to identify gaps, highlight inequities, and inform strategic planning and advocacy efforts. The first part of this project is now complete. We conducted a systematic review of over 2000 articles to investigate the barriers and facilitators to access essential SRH services in Australia's regional, rural, and remote areas. The second part of our project is mapping sexual and reproductive health services in the Barwon South West region. The significance of this research lies in its potential to highlight the systemic barriers and address the pressing need for equitable access to SRH services in regional, rural, and remote areas. #WHSN #WomensHealth #WomensHealthServicesVIC #GenderWiseSavesLives #HealthyBudget4Women

Today, we engaged in a productive meeting with representatives from the Ministry of Health (MOH) in Malava Sub-County. The focus of our discussion was to strategize on how we can effectively collaborate on projects addressing Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (SGBV) and Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR). We believe that a key element in achieving impactful results is the revitalization of the Technical Working Groups (TWGs). These groups play a crucial role in coordinating efforts and ensuring that services are delivered efficiently and effectively. #AmplifyRuralCommunities
