DESPICABLE: At this year’s 70th Commission on the Status of Women, the U.S. was the only country to vote “no” on strengthening access to justice and equality for all women and girls.
But that’s only *part* of the story... 🧵👇

✨ Ever wondered about the difference between Reproductive Rights and Reproductive Justice?
Well, Feminism demands both, but they tackle different battles.

There is no Universal Health Coverage without #SRHR⚠️
For many girls & women, out-of-pocket expenses for SRH services mean going without life-saving services. This has to change.
Health is a human right. Governments must invest in financial protection for UHC #UHCDay #GenderUHC
ALT Comprehensive sexual and reproductive health and rights are a cornerstone of Universal Health Coverage.Yet, SRH services often require out-of-pocket expenses, making them financially prohibitive for many girls and women throughout their lives, putting health at risk. It’s time for change!
On this #UHCDay, we call for the protection of all frontline workers - 70% of which are women - especially those protecting health under fire, displacement, and genocide #NotATarget

It’s #UHCday! For too many people around the world, the cost of accessing health-care and medicines is too high.
Today, we remind governments that no one should have to choose between health-care and putting food on the table.
Health is a human right. Invest in financial protection for #UniversalHealthCoverage today.
Happy #UHCDay! If you are new to #SRHR and #UHC, the Advocacy Guide linked below is a great place to start.

It's #UHCDay! Universal health coverage is a vital way to deliver quality healthcare services.
But too often, #SRHR & #SRH services —especially for girls, women, & gender-diverse people— are left out.‼️
We need gender-responsive #UHC now.
