Amnesty International has launched a new global campaign "to defend sexual and reproductive rights for all". The campaign works to end governments' and others' control over the criminalisation of sexuality and reproduction. Over the course of 2014 to 2015 Amnesty International is working to change circumstances for people in Nepal, Burkina Faso, El Salvador, the Maghreb and Ireland.
Amnesty international calls on governments to:
"stop the discriminatory use of criminal law to regulate sexuality and reproduction and stop third-party control over individual decision making"
"remove barriers to access to sexual and reproductive health services, education and information by addressing discrimination in law and practice"
"empower people to claim and exercise their rights, so that every person can make free and informed choices about their sexuality and reproduction and can exercise their sexual and reproductive rights free from discrimination, coercion and violence"
