Sensitisation programme on the rights to sexual and reproductive health for female drug users in Kampala, Uganda

The Uganda Harm Reduction Network (UHRN) is a community-based organisation, established by former drug users to provide a national platform and reduce the health, social and economic harms associated with “drug use”. UHRN seek to develop a supportive environment for the implementation and expansion of harm reduction programmes for Drug Users in Uganda.

On 11th April 2014, UHRN and its partners around Kampala gathered at UHRN’s resource Centre to commemorate the International-day-for-maternal-health-and-rights. The event included a sensitisation forum for female drug users from the five Divisions of Kampala. This forum was aimed at educating female drug users on their right to sexual and reproductive health based on the theme of ‘Know your rights.’
