This Handbook is a joint publication of OHCHR, UNFPA and the Danish Institute for Human Rights. It aims to provide National Human Rights Institutions (NHRIs) with tools and guidance on how to integrate reproductive rights in their work. Each NHRI is as unique as the country in which it has been established, but that does not mean that many of the challenges, including within the field of reproductive rights, are not the same or similar for many NHRIs. This publication provides an introduction to reproductive rights, both what they mean in practice and their normative background, and how NHRIs can work within this field. Naturally, many NHRIs already work within the reproductive rights field, and a number of experiences from NHRIs have been gathered and are mentioned in the Handbook.
