The story of Brazil's evolution in sexual and reproductive health and rights during the 1990s documents not only a decade of change in the population field, but the powerful role of social movements in a democracy. Between October and December 2002, 23 people were interviewed about where they believe progress has been made in Brazil and where there are still needs in relation to population trends, sexual and reproductive rights, and health policies. This paper contains excerpts from the full report and covers the economic and political background of Brazil; the role of non-governmental and women's organisations in influencing the national agenda; the intersection of national and international agendas on population and development, HIV/AIDS, human rights, racism and other issues; changes in sexual and reproductive health policies; HIV/AIDS policy progress, perhaps most importantly mandatory free treatment for people with HIV/AIDS; recent progress in women's health, especially in relation to antenatal and obstetric services, and services addressing violence against women. Finally it describes the role of policy accountability mechanisms that aim to ensure that the many excellent policies that have been passed since 1990 are implemented in a decentralised health system of national, state and local management and services
