Rethinking Differences and Rights in Sexual and Reproductive Health, published by Family Health International in collaboration with the Center for Information and Development of Women (CIDEM), La Paz, Bolivia, is now online at www.fhi.org/en/fp/fpother/genderguid/gendpart1.html.
The manual, developed with support from the U.S. Agency for International Development, promotes an approach to sexual and reproductive health care that recognizes different needs and perspectives within a context of respect for the rights and dignity of men and women. It is designed to provide health professionals with a framework for examining the quality of care, including the quality of human relations, technical quality, and quality of administration and management of health services. The training steps outlined in the manual aim to:
* Create opportunities for reflection and action in the field of gender-sensitive quality care.
* Provide basic tools that providers can use in their everyday practice: key concepts, techniques and practices, and criteria for implementing quality care.
* Develop capacity for critical analysis that permits participants to use key concepts and criteria to recognize, analyze and respond to users' realities and institutional practices.
Limited quantities of the manual are available from FHI in English and Spanish at no cost to developing country health agencies. For more information, please contact: [email protected]., or David Hock, Senior Information Projects Coordinator, Family Health International.
