Sexual & Reproductive Health

Lead: Liz Darling

The sexual and reproductive health workforce is a critical to the delivery of comprehensive primary care, and to the fulfillment of sexual and reproductive health and rights. This workforce figures prominently in both domestic and international efforts to achieve the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals on gender equity and good health and wellbeing. The key maternity care workforce issues to be addressed by this CHWN group range from access to and equity of choice of maternity care provider by birthing people to the factors associated with establishing and sustaining team-based and person-centered maternity care across jurisdictions.
