This short summary highlights key findings and recommended actions from the think piece on the future of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). It suggests that human development and resilience in a world of turbulence and change will hinge on fully realizing SRHR for everyone. As countries have diverse demographic trajectories, governments need to plan for change and adapt health systems to accommodate their demographic future, whether it will bring a rise in older persons, or a rise in the number of births and young people. There are more possibilities to realize this goal than ever before, including through technology. Yet careful consideration is required to manage multiple risks, from the climate crisis to digital privacy to rising population mobility. Health systems will need to adjust. Through new investments and human rights-based models of care, they can aim to uphold SRHR wherever people are and at every stage of life.
