Continued political and civil unrest in low-resource countries underscores the ongoing need for specialised reproductive health services for displaced people. Displaced women particularly face high maternal mortality, unmet need for family planning, complications following unsafe abortion, and gender-based violence, as well as sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV. Relief and development agencies and UN bodies have developed technical materials, made positive policy changes specific to crisis settings and are working to provide better reproductive health care. Substantial gaps remain, however. The collaboration within the field of reproductive health in crises is notable, with many agencies working in one or more networks. The five-year RAISE Initiative brings together major UN and NGO agencies from the fields of relief and development, and builds on their experience to support reproductive health service delivery, advocacy, clinical training and research. The readiness to use common guidance documents, develop priorities jointly and share resources has led to smoother operations and less overlap than if each agency worked independently. Trends in the field, including greater focus on internally displaced persons and those living in non-camp settings, as well as refugees in camps, the protracted nature of emergencies, and an increasing need for empirical evidence, will influence future progress.RésuméLes troubles politiques et civils dans les pays à faibles ressources soulignent le besoin de services spécialisés de santé génésique pour les personnes déplacées. Les femmes déplacées souffrent en particulier d’une mortalité maternelle élevée, de besoins insatisfaits de planification familiale, des complications d’avortements non médicalisés et de la violence sexiste, ainsi que d’IST, notamment le VIH. Les institutions d’aide humanitaire et de développement et les Nations Unies ont préparé du matériel technique et introduit des changements politiques positifs dans les environnements de crise et elles s’efforcent d’améliorer les soins de santé génésique. Des manques importants n’en demeurent pas moins. La collaboration pendant les crises est bonne, beaucoup d’institutions travaillant dans un ou plusieurs réseaux. L’initiative quinquennale RAISE rassemble les principales institutions des Nations Unies et ONG spécialisées dans l’aide humanitaire et le développement, et se fonde sur leur expérience pour soutenir la prestation de services, le plaidoyer, la formation clinique et la recherche en santé génésique. Ces organisations ont accepté d’utiliser des directives communes, de définir conjointement les priorités et de partager les ressources, permettant ainsi de mener des opérations plus harmonieuses et de réduire le nombre d’activités qui se chevauchent. Les progrès futurs seront influencés par les tendances dans ce domaine, notamment la priorité accrue accordée aux personnes déplacées à l’intérieur de leur pays et qui vivent hors des camps, en plus des réfugiés des camps, la durée prolongée des urgences et le besoin croissant de données empiriques.ResumenEl continuo descontento político y civil en países con pocos recursos recalca la necesidad continua de proporcionar servicios especializados en salud reproductiva para personas desplazadas. Las mujeres desplazadas en particular afrontan una alta tasa de mortalidad materna, necesidad insatisfecha de planificación familiar, complicaciones después del aborto inseguro y violencia basada en género, así como enfermedades de transmisión sexual, incluido el VIH. Las organizaciones de socorro y desarrollo y organismos de la ONU han elaborado materiales técnicos, realizado cambios positivos a las políticas, específicos a los ámbitos de crisis, y están trabajando para proporcionar mejores servicios de salud reproductiva. Sin embargo, aún existen importantes brechas. La colaboración en el campo de la salud reproductiva en crisis es notable, ya que muchos organismos trabajan en una o más redes. La Iniciativa RAISE de cinco años reúne importantes organismos de la ONU y ONG de los campos de socorro y desarrollo, y se basa en su experiencia para apoyar la prestación de servicios de salud reproductiva, actividades de promoción y defensa, capacitación clínica e investigación. La buena disposición para utilizar documentos de orientación en común, determinar prioridades conjuntamente y compartir recursos ha propiciado mejores actividades y menos traslapo que si cada organismo hubiera trabajado independientemente. Futuros avances serán influenciados por las tendencias en el campo, como un mayor enfoque en las personas desplazadas internamente, aquéllas fuera de los campamentos y los refugiados en los campamentos, la prolongada naturaleza de las urgencias y la creciente necesidad de evidencia empírica
