The study analyzed the sexual and reproductive health rights for women in reproductive age of migrant origin in Spain

"http://www.decides.pro/home/" DECIDES ESPAÑA has just published on its website the "http://www.decides.pro/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/DIFUSION.-Diagnostico-acceso-DSSR-DECIDES-ESPA--A.pdf" Assessment on access to sexual and reproductive health rights for women in reproductive age of migrant origin in Spain, and an "http://www.decides.pro/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/DIFUSION.-Guia-de-actuacion-DECIDES-ESPA--A.pdf" operational guide. One of the most important results of this assessment, in which have participated members of the Infectious Diseases group at Vall d’Hebron Institute of Research (VHIR), is the suitability of developing new educational and informative materials on affective sexual and reproductive health integrating the approach of equity, gender and cultural specificities.The study, presented in Barcelona on the 18th of December, 2014, is part of the activities within the project DECIDES ESPAÑA, implemented by "http://www.interarts.net/ca/index.php" Interarts and VHIR to improve equity in the access to and exercise of sexual and reproductive rights of young and women of migrant origin in Spain. The assessment has been developed by a multidisciplinary group of professionals under the leadership of the "https://barcelonaprosics.wordpress.com/" Unidad de Salud Internacional Drassanes-Vall d'Hebron (PROSICS Barcelona). The materials suggested in the assessment will also be developed within the framework of DECIDES ESPAÑA, co-funded by the Financial Mechanism of the European Economic Area (EEA Grants) which aims at contributing to the reduction of economic and social inequalities, and strengthening links between donor (Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway) and beneficiary countries (17 EU Member States). The Plataforma de ONG de Acción Social is the Operational Unit of the Programa de Ciudadanía Activa (Active Citizenship Programme) endowed with EUR 4.6 million to support the contribution of NGOs to social justice and sustainable development.
