International Safe Abortion Day
|
September 28 – International Safe Abortion Day is the global day of action to demand access to safe and legal abortions everywhere and for all women, girls, and gender-diverse individuals. It has its origin in Latin America and the Caribbean where women’s groups have been mobilizing around September 28 since the 1990s to demand their governments to decriminalize abortion, to provide access to safe and affordable abortion services and to end stigma and discrimination towards women who choose to have an abortion.
