This inception report forms part of a pilot research project conducted by Coram Children’s Legal Centre (CCLC) on behalf of the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF).
This inception report, published in 2014, was intended to act as a tool to guide the content and process of a research project which sought to understand how law, as well as knowledge and perceptions of law, can create barriers to young people’s access to sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services. As well as setting out conceptual frameworks and methodology of the project, this report presents a desk review which includes a global review of legal barriers to SRH services.
