Access to Reproductive Rights: Lessons from Latin America and the U.S.

Caitlin Gerdts and Ninde Molre

March 10, 2023

Women's Day

Event Description

In the context of International Women's Day (#8M), this event examines some of the lessons leanred from multidisciplinary perspectives about the fight for reproductive rights both in Latin America and the U.S. 

While the U.S. has seen major legislative setbacks with the overturning of Roe v. Wade, and the increase of restrictions of abortion in different states during the last years, Latin America feminists have pushed for more comprehensive access, making governments accountable for the provision of these rights.
