The Coalition to Stop Maternal Mortality due to Unsafe Abortion (@CSMMUA_) convened its Quarter One meetingto strengthen coordination and sharpen advocacy efforts aimed at advancing women’s health and rights in Uganda. The meeting brought together coalition members to plan strategic advocacy engagements around Supreme Court Constitutional Appeal No. 1 of 2026 (arising from Petition 10), a case with significant implications for access to Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR). Discussions also focused on identifying high-impact, time-sensitive priorities to inform the coalition’s 2026 annual work plan, which will later be presented to the Steering Committee for consideration and guidance. #SafeAndLegalCare

On this #InternationalSexWorkersRightsDay, we call for the decriminalisation of sex work in Uganda. Decriminalisation of sex work would provide a pathway to justice and improve access to essential health services. #Decriminalisenow
