Reproductive Freedom Around The Globe
  • 6 years ago
The landslide victory in Ireland's historic reproductive rights referendum last week, is putting pressure on other countries with similar laws to also legalize abortion. Among the world's 1.64 billion women of reproductive age, fewer than 37% live in countries where abortion is permitted in any circumstance and 6% live in countries where it is banned completely. Refinery 29 reports that there are still 26 countries where abortion is completely banned with no exceptions.
