This book is the culmination of the four-year long SHE research project. Using an intersectional approach, the research identified multifaceted challenges in realizing SRHR in the Philippines. It focused on inclusivity and sensitivity to overlapping social identities, offering tailored recommendations for different excluded groups to advance their SRHR and prevent gender-based violence. Following feminist research principles, it aimed to address gender inequalities and transform patriarchal structures. Grounded in feminist standpoint epistemology, the project centered the experiences and voices of vulnerable individuals. It adhered to feminist research ethics, prioritizing reflexivity, inclusivity, diversity, non-hierarchical relationships, collaboration, autonomy, consent, and participant well-being.
