In an engaging analysis, Nana Poku employs expert knowledge to examine the prospects for large-scale improvements. He explores not only the full range of normative sensitivities, but also conceptual misunderstandings, legal difficulties and complex challenges of securing and maintaining adequate funding while AIDS remains a pandemic in the region. Up-to-date, succinct yet highly detailed, lucid and compelling in its diagnoses of highly complex issues, this book is a valuable, accessible study of a topic that is regional in focus but with clear global implications."--Provided by publisher.Global research in gender, sexuality and health.2523-7691Palgrave pivot.Sexual healthAfrica, Sub-SaharanReproductive healthLaw and legislationAfrica, Sub-SaharanReproductive healthLaw and legislationfast(OCoLC)fst01767764Sexual healthfast(OCoLC)fst01754480Sub-Saharan AfricafastSexual healthReproductive healthLaw and legislationReproductive healthLaw and legislation.Sexual health.613.95Poku Nana1971-1060301MiAaPQMiAaPQUtOrBLWCaOWtUBOOK9910440647503321Sexual and reproductive health and rights in Sub-Saharan Africa2512331UNINA
