Article Synopsis

  • - A proposed bill would make it a felony for patients to undergo abortions after 22 weeks of pregnancy, even in legally permissible situations, which contradicts several UN Sustainable Development Goals related to health and gender equality.
  • - One suggested solution to the abortion issue in Brazil is to enhance investment in sexual education for adolescents to help reduce the need for unsafe procedures.
