In Epworth, the $40.00 cost to register a pregnancy is a barrier too high, denying many women access to essential maternity services including PMTCT. Unregistered, they face risks of home births and complications. @amnesty_zim @UNFPA_Zimbabwe @amplifyfund @SRHRAfricatrust

During the #SRHR Conversation with MPs, Katswe Sistahood recommended that the Criminal Laws amendment should be specific on what constitutes consent to sex. This is important during prosecution so that there are no multiple interpretations of the law. @amnesty_zim @afyanahakiug

In our current laws, there is not specific definition of what consent means. This is a big barrier for women and girls who have been sexually abused to relieve justice. @amnesty_zim @afyanahakiug @unwomenzw @amplifyfund @SRHRAfricatrust

This week, we are pleased to collaborate with @pai_org to facilitate an advanced training on legal approaches to SRHR Advocacy. This training brings together partners from Malawi and Zambia under the Reproductive Health Advocacy Partnership and it is a great space for regional experience sharing and learning.

Participants from Kenya, Malawi, Rwanda, Nigeria, Uganda, and Zimbabwe attended, including the Judiciary, CSOs, academia, the research community, government officials, and experts in public health, law, and policy.
