Fiona Lyons gave a great overview at #HPRC2025 of the HSE’s work in sexual health highlighting progress in STI prevention, free home testing, access to contraception, amongst other approaches. #SexualHealthPromotion
Important aspects of #SexualHealthPromotion policy & practice under the spotlight at today's #HPRC2025:
- the importance of consent
- sexual violence & abuse
- the need to develop porn literacy education
- sexual harassment & nightlife (only 12% report it)
