Summary/Abstract: In Bosnia and Herzegovina, there is no single law, program or strategy covering the area of sexual and reproductive health. Issues of sexual and reproductive rights at the level of entities, cantons and Brčko District are not regulated as a separate legislative unit, that is, they are contained in laws enacted in the areas of health, social protection, family relations, criminal and misdemeanor legislation. Upon the expiration of FB&H Strategy for the Improvement of Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights in 2019, a new strategy wasn’t adopted.
