From
Vienna to Beijing: The Cairo Hearing on Reproductive Health
and Human Rights
The
Cairo Hearing is a compilation of six testimonies from
around the world addressing reproductive health and human
rights violations. These were presented at the NGO Forum of
the 1994 International Conference on Population and Development
in Cairo, Egypt. Testifiers and expert commentators highlighted
women's health as a fundamental human right by addressing
cases of mass hysterectomies of mentally retarded girls, negligent
medical practices resulting in natal death and/or sterilization,
and the social and health detriments of adolescent pregnancy
and patriarchal marital customs.
