Recommendation
Action Canada for Population and Development was concerned by gender-based violence, discrimination and harassment of minority groups and violations of workers’ rights in the informal sector. It noted that reproductive health access remains low with high maternal mortality rates and low access to contraceptives. It recommended that the rights violations of sex workers be documented and addressed. This includes the decriminalisation of adult sex work, accountability and independent oversight of the police and the roll out of sexual and reproductive health and rights and HIV services.
