CoSH
The Commission on Sexual Health fights for a society free from stigma and discrimination.

About

swimsa believes in a world in which every individual is empowered to exercise their sexual and reproductive health rights equally, free from stigma and discrimination.

We want to give our members the skills and knowledge of our members, providing training on comprehensive sexuality education and other reproductive health issues, exchanging ideas and projects, as well as drafting policies and working with our external partners in order to create change at the local, regional, and international level.

Our Structure

The CoSH is composed of five associate members of swimsa, active in at least one of the five pillars of SCORA. The National Officer on Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights including HIV and AIDS (NORA) is the swimsa internal in charge of CoSH.
