It brings together resources on the key international resolutions that impact women’s sexual and reproductive health and rights, monitoring reports on progress made on MDGs in general and MDG 5 in particular, and resources that cover linkages to other MDGs such as women’s empowerment, poverty, climate change and others, and the concept of human rights.
This compilation complements the ARROWs For Change (AFC) bulletin vol. 15 no. 1 2009 issue, In search of climate justice: Refuting dubious linkages, affirming rights. The compilation brings together different perspectives on the climate change and population debate, especially those that present an alternate, feminist and gender-sensitive view to the climate change challenge. It investigates linkages between climate change, population, and sexual and reproductive rights. The resources use climate and reproductive justice frameworks to counter the mainstream proposals on stabilising population growth.
Reappraising Population Policies and Family Planning Programmes: An Annotated Bibliography
This annotated bibliography is a comprehensive collection of 183 abstracts from published and unpublished materials written by women activists, health researchers and demographers. It was published after the 1994 International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) in Cairo and serves as a practical resource, providing pertinent information for those who are looking for more materials towards reappraising population policies and family planning programmes, particularly in the Asian and Pacific region. Arranged in three sections of population and development, family planning programmes, and reproductive health and reproductive rights, the bibliography is a useful research tool for libraries, researchers and individuals.
In each of these issues, critiques are included, together with overviews of country situations, evaluations of policies and programmes in Asia and the Pacific, and conceptual materials providing theoretical frameworks. This bibliography hopes to make available to a wide range of people and organizations, materials that is not easily accessible.
