Motion text

That this House is appalled that every year over 500,000 women, living in developing countries, die in pregnancy or childbirth as a result of preventable causes and that millions more suffer ill health and disability; acknowledges that at least three quarters of global HIV infections are sexually transmitted and that women of reproductive age are most at risk; recognises that the implementation of the millennium development goals (MDGs) is necessary to reduce child mortality, improve maternal health, combat HIV/AIDS and promote gender equality; further acknowledges the importance of sexual and reproductive health for achieving all the MDGs, as recognised by the UN Secretary General, the UN Millennium Project, the EU, Commission for Africa, national governments, and international agencies and bodies including the WHO, UNFPA and UNAIDS; welcomes the strong stance on sexual and reproductive health taken by the Department for International Development; and urges that the UK Statement at the Millennium Review Summit emphasises the centrality of sexual and reproductive health towards achieving the MDGs.
