- The gap in the level of awareness about sexual and reproductive health among youth with disabilities.
- Unavailability of accessible- easy to understand information on SRHR for young people living with disabilities.
Societal perceptions of disability exacerbates isolation of persons with disabilities. This isolation starts at a young age and is directly connected to misinformation and myths about sexuality and the disabled body. In these 6 videos, our 10 protagonists share their experiences and their stories of courage to overcome the neglect, disregard and isolation they faced due to social stigma about disability and sexuality.
Discriminatory behaviour against persons with disability due to societal perceptions and norms not only affects their relationships and social life but also further excludes them from receiving important sexual and reproductive health related information and services. Furthermore, in the absence of comprehensive sexuality education, youth with disability often remain unaware of their rights and become more susceptible to abuse and violence. In these 3 podcasts, youth from different backgrounds discuss similarities and differences in their experiences as per their social realities.
