Sexual and Reproductive Health Matters ( SRHM) journal is a peer-reviewed, international, open access journal that explores emerging, neglected and marginalized issues across the field of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). It aims to publish original and contemporary research, particularly from a feminist perspective, that can help to inform the development of policies, laws and services to fulfil the rights and meet the sexual and reproductive health needs of people of all ages, gender identities and sexual orientations. SRHM publishes work that engages with fundamental dilemmas and debates in SRHR, highlighting multiple perspectives, acknowledging differences and searching for new forms of consensus. SRHM strongly encourages research that explores experiences, values, information and issues from the point of view of those whose lives are affected.A key consideration for SRHM is whether authors have included a sufficient rights focus in their work. The importance of rights-based, as well as evidence-informed, work in sexual and reproductive health is highlighted in the following article, which also provides illustrative examples of rights-based knowledge creation in this area: B.
