Hi Elizabeth,

Being in Melbourne, you might like to visit Family Planning Victoria (in
Box Hill) and have a look in our library. We have several resources that
you may find of interest. The Same Sex Attracted, Friendly Environments
in Schools resource may be useful, and the report 'Best Practice in
Developing Sexual & Reproductive Health Services to Young People in
Victoria' may be interesting.

I can also email you our recent (and first) edition of e_Update, which
has a focus on Young people and Sexual and Reproductive Health. It aims
to update local organisations on key issues surrounding sexual and
reproductive health and happenings at FPV. 
 
Please feel free to contact me for more details,

Subject: Information on good practice in women's reproductive health??

Hello

I am currently undertaking a small research project on behalf of Women's
Health West, in Melbourne, Australia to look at projects/models of good
practice in the provision of (non clinical) reproductive health services
for
women of all ages, in the context of diverse communities.

We understand reproductive health within a social model of health, and
our
definition of reproductive health includes (but is not limited to)
family
planning, conception, fertility rights, contraception, pregnancy health,
breast health, pap screening, menopause, sexually transmitted
infections,
menstruation, abortion, sexual decision making, and female genital
cutting.

Our primary aim in undertaking this research is to make an informed
decision
about the best way for us to use this funding in the future.

I'd be interested to hear about any frameworks, models, activities, or
projects that you think might be relevant to us. 

Of course, please don't feel you need to write me chapter and verse! I
would
be delighted to receive website URLs, pdfs or other electronic documents
and
to sort through these to find the answers to my questions.

As this is a very short process, if you have information to share, I'd
appreciate hearing from you as soon as possible - preferably within the
next
week or so.

Thanks and best wishes
