The UK’s cuts to foreign financial support betray marginalized communities, fueling war & suffering while boosting military spending. This unjust choice will cost lives. We call on the UK to reverse this decision & restore the budget to 0.7 of GNI as pledged in its election manifesto. bit.ly/3XkonMh

We're disappointed Germany’s Parliament failed to vote this week to advance decriminalisation of abortion care before the federal election—a missed chance to reduce current barriers, stigma & costs. But the fight isn’t over! Civil society & allies will keep pushing for reproductive freedom.

👏 A positive step forward as civil society faces mounting threats in the EU. The institutions urgently need to step up and protect women human rights defenders and #SRHR orgs! We look forward to working together to help ensure a strong, effective strategy.

On 24 Jan, Trump reinstated the Global Gag Rule, a dangerous policy denying U.S. funding to orgs like IPPF if they provide or even discuss safe abortion care with funds from other donors. The GGR is a direct + deadly attack on #ReproductiveJustice worldwide. Read IPPF's statement:

This would be long overdue: We urge all EU countries to base their rape laws on lack of #consent, in line with the Istanbul Convention. They also need to centre consent education in efforts to prevent gender-based violence, as required by the new EU law on #GBV. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...
