As the next webinar of the “Sexual and Reproductive Health Justice Series,” this discussion will foster a space for exchanging experiences, legal strategies, and advocacy approaches that have proven effective in Southeast Asia.

Join us for a critical discussion on how strategic litigation has emerged as a critical tool in safeguarding and expanding sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) — enabling courts to hold governments accountable, influence public policy, and ensure legal protections for those most affected by restrictive laws and policies.

Date: Tuesday, May 13, 2025
Time: 9 – 10:30a.m. ET/8 – 9:30p.m. ICT

Hear from SRHR activists and allies from Southeast Asia on how to build effective pro-rights narratives and propel the movement forward in this unprecedented climate of significant rollbacks and threats.
