This publication puts a human face on the issue to which Ipas has dedicated 30 years: the need to ensure access to safe abortion services for all women, no matter how rich or poor, no matter where they live. Through fictionalized stories- several based on real life - set in India, Kenya, Nicaragua, Russia and the United States, it illuminates the personal contexts that lead women to seek abortions and the obstacles they too often encounter in exercising their sexual and reproductive rights.
