व्यक्तिको स्वतन्त्र निर्णय, पहिचान र सम्मानको सुनिश्चितता स्वस्थ जीवनको अनिवार्य सर्त हो। यौन तथा प्रजनन् अधिकार व्यक्तिको मानव अधिकार हो। नेपालको संविधानमा यौन तथा प्रजनन् स्वास्थ्य अधिकारलाई मौलिक हकको रुपमा राखिएको छ । त्यसैगरी अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय कानुनको साथै नेपालको राष्ट्रिय कानुन र नीतिले पनि यी अन्तर्गतका अधिकारहरुलाई मानव अधिकारको रुपमा मान्यता दिएको छ । कुनैपनि व्यक्तिले पूर्ण यौन तथा प्रजनन् स्वास्थ्य अधिकार प्राप्तिका लागि जीवनमा सबै प्रकारको विभेदबाट मुक्त भई आफ्नो शरीरका सम्बन्धमा स्वः निर्णय गर्न सक्ने अवस्था हुन पर्दछ । तर हाम्रो समाजमा त्यस्तो छैन । महिलाहरु विभेदीत छन्। समाजमा रहेका विभेदपूर्ण मूल्य मान्यताहरुले महिलालाई दोस्रो दर्जाको नागरिकको रुपमा राख्ने एवं निरन्तरता दिने काम गरिरहेका छन्। सामाजिक लैङ्गिक विभेदको आधारमा महिलाहरू शारीरिक, मानसिक, सामाजिक, यौनिक तथा आर्थिक रूपले विभिन्न किसिमका हिंसा, लाञ्छना र पीडा सहन बाध्य छन्। यसले उनीहरुको यौनिकता, यौन व्यवहारमा प्रभाब पारेको छ । यौन र यौनिकता सम्बन्धी लिइने निर्णयहरु प्रभावित भएका छन्, उनीहरुमाथि विभिन्न खालका यौन हिंसाहरु भएका छन् र स्वास्थ्यमा बहुपक्षीय असर परेको छ ।

]]> Infertility, Assisted Reproduction (AR) and Surrogacy Facts https://worecnepal.org/infertility-assisted-reproduction-ar-and-surrogacy-facts/ Wed, 20 Aug 2025 07:38:15 +0000 https://worecnepal.org/?p=5031 INFERTILITY DEFINITION AND FACTS

Infertility is not only a medical issue but also a social and political one that reflects deep-seated ideas about women’s roles and values in society. Infertility and women’s rights intersects in ways that highlight gendered expectations, bodily autonomy, and societal pressures surrounding reproductive health. Research reveals that infertility along with lack of access to information and treatment among women leads to Gender Based Violence (GBV) and psychosocial issues, controlling informed decisions and choices related to body. While laws exist to address violence related to childlessness, such violence still occurs in villages but often goes unreported. Infertility and assisted reproduction are closely linked, as assisted reproductive technologies (ART) provide medical solutions for individuals and couples who struggle with infertility and make choices about their reproductive health1 .

]]> Impact of Disaster on Women’s Sexual and Reproductive Health Rights https://worecnepal.org/impact-of-disaster-on-womens-sexual-and-reproductive-health-rights/ Wed, 20 Aug 2025 05:37:59 +0000 https://worecnepal.org/?p=5016 Nepal is highly vulnerable to natural calamities such as floods, landslides and earthquakes that pose significant threats to community safety and stability. The recent 5.7 magnitude earthquake on November 3, 2023, in Jajarkot District,
Karnali Province, highlighted the severe impact with 26,557 households fully damaged, 35,455 households partially damaged and over 150 lives lost. The earthquake resulted in significant property loss, damage to public infrastructures
and services, a decline in socio-economic status and deprivation of basic needs. These impacts have profoundly affected women from diverse backgrounds, exacerbating pre-existing inequalities and impacting their sexual and reproductive health (SRH) and mental health. There has been an increase in sexual and gender-based violence (GBV) and disruptions in healthcare infrastructure have limited access to crucial SRH services like contraceptives and maternal care.

Women and girls face increased risks of sexual and reproductive health issues due to the breakdown of social structures and support systems. Additionally, the patriarchal structure controlling sexual and reproductive health rights (SRHR) of women and girls limits their control over and decision-making about their own bodies, which is exacerbated in the post-disaster period. Addressing SRH needs becomes crucial in these scenarios, prioritizing thenprovision of reproductive health services, safe delivery facilities, access to contraceptives, and creating safe spaces for women and girls.

तसर्थ, महामारीको समयमा आवश्यक र बृहत्तर यौन तथा प्रजनन् स्वास्थ्य सेवाहरु जस्तै आपतकालिन गर्भनिरोधक, एन्टिरेट्रोभाइरल औषधी, सुरक्षित गर्भपतन सेवा, गर्भपतन पछि दिइने सेवाहरुको समयमै पहुँच सुनिश्चित गरिनु आवश्यक छ।

It was initiated inApril 1997 to address the need for the health program to embrace a holistic approach with appropriate human resources. WOREC adopted the concept of barefoot gynecologists in its program which was beginning of women’s health movement from the community level where women took control of their own health. This case which became foundation fo WOREC’s women health program made it clear that a number of health problems that women faced were a result of social inequalities. Not having control over her body, sexuality and reproduction, discriminatory cultural practices, values and norms have further lowered women’s status and contributed to women’s health problems. The gender-based division of labor, social norms, values and traditions related to pregnancy, reproduction, miscarriage, abortion, and use of contraceptives without proper information and lack of counseling were the factors that contributed to degrading women’s health. During a health camp in 1994, founder of WOREC Dr. Renu Adhikari when examined 56 years lady, the prolapsed part of her uterus projected out, along with a fountain of smelly dark yellowish watery discharge.The lady had inserted a rubber slipper inside her vagina for ease of walking as it kept her uterus inside.Married at age of 12,she had her first child at 15 and her uterus prolapsed after the birth of her third child at the age of 20. Five years later, her husband abandoned her and their five children. She was not allowed by the women in the village to take a bath at the public tap because of her smelly discharge and had to allow other to fill their water pot first. She went to see several local health institutions for treatment, but all turned her away saying they did not have medicines for women’s diseases.
