Protecting women’s reproductive rights is essential in building and maintaining a peaceful society. Reproductive rights, including access to safe and legal abortion, contraception, and comprehensive healthcare, are fundamental human rights that empower women to make decisions about their own bodies, health, and future. When women have control over their reproductive choices, they are more likely to pursue education, employment, and participate fully in society, leading to increased gender equality and economic empowerment.

In a peaceful society, women should have the autonomy to make informed choices about their reproductive health without fear of discrimination, violence, or coercion. When women are denied access to reproductive healthcare or forced into unwanted pregnancies, it can lead to negative physical, emotional, and economic consequences, including increased maternal mortality rates, poverty, and inequality. Protecting women’s reproductive rights ensures that they have the freedom to make choices that align with their personal values, health, and well-being, fostering a society that respects and values gender equality, bodily autonomy, and human rights.

We at the Europe Peace Foundation stand in solidarity with the protection of women’s rights.

We believe that all women deserve to be protected and respected to create an equal society.
