Empowering Agency: Western Sydney Migrant and Refugee Youths' Perspectives on Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights

The population of migrant and refugee youth in Greater Western Sydney is increasing exponentially each year. Little is understood about these young people's understanding of and ability to exert their sexual and reproductive health and rights. By centering their voices, we can better understand the social ecology of the barriers they encounter and the factors that facilitate informed sexual and reproductive health decision-making. This will result in a youth-determined model for policy and programming aimed at improving migrant and refugee sexual and reproductive health literacy, wellbeing and agency.
