Abortion is common and life-saving healthcare. It should be available to everyone, no matter who they are or where they live. Instead, it remains stigmatised, inaccessible, and legally restricted all around the world.

We have in front of us an undeniable public health and human rights crisis of preventable deaths, lifelong injuries, and the denial of people’s bodily autonomy. On top of that are the significant operating challenges for healthcare providers. This is unsustainable.

As abortion providers for almost 50 years, our teams and partners on the ground have unrivalled insights. Since 2000, our teams have supported over 52 million people to access abortion care across six continents. We’ve reached the most marginalised and remote communities where others cannot—or will not—go, allowing us to change lives and gain learnings at scale.

This report captures the culmination of these experiences and insights, to contribute our global perspective, enrich the evidence base and further accelerate progress.

We lay out a vision for the future of abortion care, so we can all work together to finish the abortion revolution.
