INTERNATIONAL CAMPAIGN FOR WOMEN’S RIGHT TO SAFE ABORTION ANNOUNCES ACTIVITIES FOR 28 SEPTEMBER DAY OF ACTION
28 SEPTEMBER : A DAY OF ACTION FOR SAFE, LEGAL ABORTION
28 September, the International Day of Action for Decriminalization of Abortion was launched in Latin America and the Caribbean in 1988 by a regional network of activist groups, Campaña 28 de Septiembre, who have organised activities in support of safe abortion in that region ever since.
In 2011, the Women’s Global Network for Reproductive Rights (WGNRR) agreed to globalise 28 September as a Day of Action, and changed the name of the day to the Global Day of Action for Safe and Legal Abortion.
In 2012, the International Campaign for Women’s Right to Safe Abortion was launched, and in two years has been endorsed by 378 global, regional and national organizations and 921 individuals from around the world. The Campaign’s first major activity in 2012 was to call for expanded global action by everyone working toward abortion rights for 28 September, in conjunction with the Latin American & Caribbean campaign and WGNRR. In 2012 and again in 2013, activities were organised in a record 51 countries and by regional networks and international NGOs.
