About Us
Who is Sexual and Reproductive Health Australia (SRHA)?
SRHA is a long-standing alliance of the key sexual and reproductive health organisations from each of the Australian states and territories and is their national policy and advocacy voice.
SRHA works primarily at the national level to uphold, strengthen, and advance sexual and reproductive health and rights, so that all people have freedom and autonomy over all matters related to sexuality, reproduction, gender and wellbeing.
Our work cuts across 20+ national government strategies and policy frameworks in the portfolios of health, education, gendered violence, equity, e-safety, prevention of child sexual abuse and international development.
Through the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF) network, SRHA connects internationally with organisations of like mind to further sexual and reproductive health and rights for all.
