Why sexual health matters
The World Health Organization (WHO) defines sexual health as "a state of physical, emotional, mental, and social well-being in relation to sexuality; it is not merely the absence of disease."
Good sexual health affects us all. It is important for individuals and communities alike. Needs vary based on factors such as:
- age
- gender
- sexual orientation
- ethnicity
Everyone shares certain needs:
- access to accurate information
- access to quality services
- access to treatment
Sexual health involves a positive, respectful approach to sexuality. It means having the ability to experience safe, enjoyable sexual moments free from:
- coercion
- discrimination
- violence
For sexual health to be achieved, sexual rights must be:
- respected
- protected
- fulfilled
