The Reproductive Health Response in Conflict (RHRC) Consortium is dedicated to the promotion of reproductive health among all persons affected by armed conflict. The RHRC Consortium promotes sustained access to comprehensive, high quality reproductive health programs in emergencies and advocates for policies that support reproductive health of persons affected by armed conflict.

The RHRC Consortium believes all persons have a right to quality reproductive health care and that reproductive health programming must promote rights, respect and responsibility for all.
