Women and gender diverse people in regional and rural areas often face complex barriers when accessing sexual and reproductive healthcare.
So, we’re consulting with the community and healthcare providers to better understand the challenges they face when accessing services or delivering care and education.
We ran a community consultation survey from the 12th of May to the 6th of June this year. We thank the over 400 women, gender diverse people and health care providers who completed the survey and generously shared their experiences.
To view the outcomes of the survey, download a copy of the survey snapshot here. This survey snapshot presents a summary of early findings at the mid-point of the consultation.
The next phase of the consultation invites women, gender diverse people and sexual and reproductive healthcare providers to participate in interviews and focus groups to further explore the issues identified in the survey.
Interviews and focus groups will take place in August – October, if you’re interested in participating in an interview or focus group please complete this expression of interest form. If you express your interest in either a focus groups and/or an interview, you are under no obligation to participate if you change your mind. A set number of places have been allocated for the interviews and focus groups, and therefore expressing your interest does not guarantee participation.
