Best Practice Papers (BPP) are peer-reviewed generic papers that can easily be adapted to local circumstances.

The papers are aimed at staff providing health care on a daily basis; trainees and medical students; and advocates and policy-makers looking to improve their services.

These BPPs were updated in 2022 and peer-reviewed by international SRHR experts.

If you would like to use the Best Practice Papers to adapt to your local context get in touch with the Centre for Women’s Global Health cfwgh@rcog.org.uk
