Dear Colleague,
C-Fam spent more than two years in creating the largest online human rights database tracking UN pressure on abortion and gender. The database shows massive increase in pressure from these treaty monitoring bodies on UN Member States. Rebecca Oas, Ph.D., who created the database, reports.
One of these treaty monitoring bodies has ordered Guatemala to legalize abortion and that any restrictions violate existing human rights. This, of course, is a lie, but one that will force Guatemala and other countries to respond. Stefano Gennarini, J.D. reports.
Here is a very important report from our colleague Iulia-Elena Cazan at the International Youth Coalition (IYc).
Spread the word. Be daring. Keep the faith.
Yours sincerely,
Austin Ruse
President
