“…For sexual and reproductive health and rights advocates, these multiple challenges are heightened by the predicted intense opposition to sexual and reproductive health and rights, and the "much older and more intractable prejudice and fear directed at women's and girls' empowerment in all its forms". 11 The interviews document the political astuteness of sexual and reproductive health and rights advocates in their engagement in the post-2015 discussion in 2013, and their collective determination that history would not repeat itself. Their commitment and perspicacity will need to be channelled into ongoing, tactical advocacy with Member States, with a strong multisectoral focus, at all times promoting the interconnectedness of sexual and reproductive health and rights and the sustainable development agenda.…”

“…10 Despite the MDG review in 2005 acknowledging the "centrality of sexual and reproductive health and rights in ending poverty", the formal addition of a reproductive health target in 2007 ("Target 5B: Achieve, by 2015, universal access to reproductive health"), within the MDGs depended on a huge advocacy effort. 11 At the same time, critics had highlighted "the complete inadequacy of the targets and indicators associated with MDG 3 in capturing the goal of women's empowerment". 12 Up to this writing, the open nature of post-2015 planning has created a very different and more favourable negotiating landscape for sexual and reproductive health and rights advocates; the antithesis of the closed planning period preceding the MDGs.…”

This paper reports the views of participants from key multilaterals and related agencies in the evolving global negotiations on the post-2015 development agenda on the strategic location of sexual and reproductive health and rights. The research was carried out in June and July 2013, following the release of the report of the High-Level Panel of Eminent Persons on the Post-2015 Development Agenda, and comprised 40 semi-structured interviews with 57 participants and two e-mail respondents. All respondents were responsible for the post-2015 health and development agenda, or the post-2015 agenda more broadly, within their organisations. The interviews provide an insight into the intention to ensure that sexual and reproductive health and rights are integrated into the post-2015 trajectory by key players who sit at the interface of UN and Member State interaction. They reveal both an awareness of the shortcomings of the Millennium Development Goal process and its impact on advocacy for sexual and reproductive health and rights in early post-2015 engagement, as well as the vulnerability of sexual and reproductive health and rights in the remaining phases of post-2015 negotiations. Recent events bear these concerns out. Ensuring sexual and reproductive health and rights are included in the final post-2015 outcome document in the time remaining for negotiations, will be anything but a "doddle".

“…There have also been concerted efforts to prioritise the inclusion of sexual and reproductive health and rights in sustainable development goal setting . Early discussions highlight a revisit of sustainable population level debates from three decades ago on the one hand, and the desire to ensure population growth to maintain economic development on the other . Both of these positions have implications for reproductive health and reproductive choices.…”
