- Reproductive Health Policy. 2008. Islamic Relief. In the 2004 Strategic Conference of Islamic Relief, reproductive health was classified by the majority of Islamic Relief staff as a top priority for which a policy was needed. A 2006 survey of Islamic Relief field partners confirmed that reproductive health is a pressing issue in the communities in which they work and reconfirmed the need to have a policy in this field. This policy aims to address a range of reproductive health problems effectively and in compliance with Islamic teachings. It is based on a review of existing literature; international and national laws, regulations and conventions on reproductive health; and extensive verbal and written consultations with Islamic Relief colleagues, religious scholars and leaders, and people working for specialist reproductive health-related organizations.
