<p>Women and girls raped in conflict situations need access to a comprehensive range
of sexual and reproductive health services. The UK funds partners to deliver such
services. For example, we are working with agencies such as UNFPA to provide essential
sexual and reproductive health care within our humanitarian responses, including in
Ukraine and Syria. We encourage other donors and partner agencies to increase provision
of sexual and reproductive health services including full implementation of the Minimum
Initial Service Package (MISP). These may include access to safe abortion services
as set out in our policy paper on safe and unsafe abortion.</p><p>The Secretary of
State made a commitment at the UN General Assembly in 2015 that in humanitarian crises,
DFID calls for proposals will require the sexual and reproductive health and rights
of women and girls to be considered. We are working with our partners to operationalise
this commitment.</p>
