The overall aim of the summit was to mobilize political will and financial commitments that are urgently needed to \u201cfinally and fully\u201d implement the 1994 International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) Program of Action. Despite the recommendation by ICPD to incorporate infertility care in reproductive health services, the new Nairobi Statement largely neglects the topic of infertility. This is particularly troublesome as infertility is a global health problem affecting between 52.6 and 72.4 million couples worldwide, with a high prevalence in low- and middle-income settings. For many people around the world, infertility constitutes an emotional, social, and financial burden, yet appropriate services directed toward preventing and addressing infertility are often inaccessible, unaffordable, or nonexistent. With the impetus of a wider reproductive justice community, we call for the integration of infertility into global reproductive health research and practice, urging policy makers, practitioners, researchers, activists, and funders worldwide to bring focused attention to addressing challenges posed by a lack of safe, effective, and dignified fertility management among those in need.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4269\/ajtmh.20-0128","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,26]],"date-time":"2021-01-26T07:00:51Z","timestamp":1611644451000},"page":"812-813","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["The Nairobi Summit and Reproductive Justice: Unmet Needs for People with Infertility"],"prefix":"10.4269","volume":"104","author":[{"given":"Susan","family":"Dierickx","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"1Centre of Expertise on Gender, Diversity and Intersectionality (RHEA), Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Brussels, Belgium;"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Michiel","family":"De Proost","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"1Centre of Expertise on Gender, Diversity and Intersectionality (RHEA), Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Brussels, Belgium;"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Anny Yuanfei","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"2School of Health and Related Research (ScHARR), The University of Sheffield, Sheffield, United Kingdom;"},{"name":"3Medical Research Council Unit, The Gambia at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, Fajara, The Gambia;"},{"name":"4Research School of Population Health, Australian National University, Canberra, Australia;"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sainey","family":"Ceesay","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"5Safe Haven Foundation, Banjul, The Gambia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ed","family":"Clarke","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"3Medical Research Council Unit, The Gambia at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, Fajara, The Gambia;"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Julie","family":"Balen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"2School of Health and Related Research (ScHARR), The University of Sheffield, Sheffield, United Kingdom;"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"2795","container-title":["The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ajtmh.org\/view\/journals\/tpmd\/104\/3\/article-p812.xml","content-type":"text\/html","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ajtmh.org\/downloadpdf\/journals\/tpmd\/104\/3\/article-p812.xml","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,12]],"date-time":"2021-08-12T00:41:08Z","timestamp":1628728868000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ajtmh.org\/view\/journals\/tpmd\/104\/3\/article-p812.xml"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,3]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3"},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4269\/ajtmh.20-0128","relation":{},"ISSN":["0002-9637","1476-1645"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0002-9637","type":"print"},{"value":"1476-1645","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,3]]}}}
