Announcing the first Australasian Sexual and Reproductive Health Day



Australasian Sexual and Reproductive Health Day – A future fit for reproductive health and rights by 2050 will be held on Thursday 9 September 2021.

The program will be hosted in the same virtual event portal as the Joint Australasian Sexual Health and HIV&AIDS Conferences.


The introduction of a stand-alone reproductive health day within the Australasian Sexual Health and HIV&AIDS Joint Conference is a natural and obvious synergy.

It acknowledges that to achieve positive health outcomes, sexual health and reproductive interventions must be closely aligned. This integration will provide opportunities for professional development and networking across disciplines, encouraging a broader engagement across research, clinical management, prevention, to ensure best practice and policy.
