Abstract

This joint report (Global Forum for Health Research and World Health Organization) identifies gaps, priorities and multi-disciplinary approaches in sexual and reproductive health (SRH) research, an area identified as the 'missing Millennium Development Goal'. Looking specifically at currently underserved populations in LMICs, this report is a solid contribution to efforts to develop an evidence base for improving the quality, availability and use of sexual and reproductive health information, products and services. It uses a rights-based, life-course framework for analysing and filling gaps in current knowledge of SRH problems as they are experienced by women, men and adolescent girls and boys. The report also raises essential research questions for policy-makers and programme managers to consider to create a favourable policy environment for advancements in SRH.
