Booklet Series

• Quality/Calidad/Qualité
  This series highlights examples of clinical and educational programs that bring a strong commitment, as well as innovative and thoughtful approaches, to the issue of high-quality care in sexual and reproductive health. The series is based on the philosophy that women and their partners have a fundamental right to respectful treatment, information, choice, and follow-up from reproductive health care providers.
• SEEDS
  SEEDS was created to meet requests from all over the world for information about innovative and practical program ideas developed to address the economic roles and needs of low-income women. The booklets are designed as a means to share information and spark new initiatives based on the positive experiences of projects that are working to help women generate livelihoods and to improve their economic status.
