Why have we launched this new title?
Research in the area of sexual and reproductive health is growing internationally, particularly
among midwives. In a global perspective there is a huge interest in women's health, which is mirrored in the millennium goals of the
UN as well as in international declarations and agreements.
Sexual & Reproductive HealthCare aims to take on the role
as a contributor of new knowledge and evidence to representatives of the health care sector and society. The journal will present studies
demonstrating sexual and reproductive health matters from a multifaceted perspective where the connection between these questions and
the individuals' rights will be illuminated.
