Introducing the Caribbean SRHR Observatory: Coming Soon Caribbean Observatory on Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights, an initiative spearheaded by IPPF Americas and the Caribbean Regional Office (IPPF ACRO). We are proudly collaborating with a dynamic coalition of Caribbean organizations committed to the well-being of our region in order to secure data and insights that are critical to shaping SRHR in the Caribbean.  Purpose: We recognize that building an equitable future necessitates forging unbreakable links between access to Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) and the elimination of gender-based inequities especially in the form of Gender Based Violence in our Communities. The observatory platform will host a cutting-edge data visualization and knowledge platform in order to champion robust policies and pioneering programs aimed at eradicating Gender-Based Violence from our society. Empowering Change: Alongside our partners, The Caribbean Observatory is poised to be the catalyst for transformative change. It will unite a wealth of evidence-based data that will encompass the multi-county landscape that is Caribbean sexual and reproductive health and rights. This singular repository will serve as the bedrock of informed decisions, driving effective action and impactful change. A Unified Vision: In our united pursuit of a future where fundamental rights are not just recognized but upheld, the Caribbean SRHR Observatory will stand as a beacon of hope. We envision a Caribean where everyone, irrespective of their background or circumstance, receives the care, respect, and dignity they inherently deserve.
