question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what steps they intend to take to prioritise marginalised people and communities in regard to sexual and reproductive health and rights; and what plans they have to discuss this matter at the 2019 Nairobi Summit on the International Conference on Population and Development.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/10/2019 answer text <p>The Secretary of State recently announced new UK efforts to end preventable deaths of mothers, newborns and children by 2030. The UK is committed to achieving universal health coverage and to achieve our goals, we must reach the most marginalised. Without sexual and reproductive health and rights, we cannot achieve universal health coverage.</p><p> </p><p>Our programmes are reaching the most marginalised. For example, the Women’s Integrated Sexual Health reproductive health programme uses innovative ways to identify and reach the poorest and most marginalised women with essential services across 27 countries. Our support to the Robert Carr Fund, Amplify Change and the Safe Abortion Action Fund all support grassroots organisations to campaign for and access their sexual and reproductive health and rights.</p><p> </p><p>The Nairobi Summit on International Conference on Population and Development 25 is an opportunity for the global community to re-state the importance of sexual and reproductive health and rights including for marginalised people and communities. The UK will make our ongoing commitment clear, including our efforts on challenging issues such as female genital mutilation, child marriage and unsafe abortion in the most marginalised and hard to reach communities.</p> answering member printed Baroness Sugg question first answered 30/10/2019 16:20:20 answering member 4584 label Biography information for Baroness Sugg

uin	HL1881
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/09/2016 answer text <p>The UK aid strategy has committed that, from 2016, we spend 50% of our support in fragile states and regions. This will include our work on family planning and broader sexual and reproductive health and rights. In such settings, DFID uses multilateral mechanisms, for example United Nations Population Fund, and our bilateral programmes to disburse funding for sexual and reproductive health services. In addition the UK has made a commitment that in humanitarian crises, DFID calls for proposals will require that the sexual and reproductive health and rights of women and girls to be considered.</p><p>DFID spent approximately £605m on sexual, reproductive, maternal and child health in fragile and conflict affected states and their neighbours in 2014; £606m in 2013 and £526m in 2012. This was approximately 6% of DFID ODA in 2012 and 2013 and 7% in 2012.</p><p>In 2015/16 our support to UNFPA totalled £112.5m and included work in fragile and conflict-affected states and humanitarian settings, including in Syria, Afghanistan and Yemen. In Syria, for example, DFID will be providing £18.5 million through UNFPA over three years to 2018. This is in addition to the UK’s previous support to Syria, which has helped tackle gender-based violence and enabled access to reproductive health services for more than 260,000 girls and women.</p> answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns grouped question UIN HL1882 question first answered 27/09/2016 14:01:17 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns
