ABORTION IS HEALTHCARE This global day of action calls for an end to criminalisation, medical gatekeeping, and cultural narratives that shame and silence people who have abortions. #destigmatiseabortions #reproductivefutures #feministfutures #safeabortions #selfmanagedabortions

A powerful moment of partnership and preparation. Ifrah Ahmed, Founder and Programme Director of @IfrahFoundation , together with Emily Krehm from International Rescue Committee, as they prepare for the @Irish_Aid -funded grassroots drive to bring the new law banning FGM to communities across Somalia. Through the Born Perfect Caravans, this work will take the message directly to villages — ensuring that the law is not only passed, but understood, heard and acted upon. We are also grateful to the German government for believing in the power of frontline women to help bring an end to FGM. ✊✊✊ #EndFGM #LocalLeadership #WomenLeading #BornPerfectCaravans #GlobalPartnerships

From all of us at YNCSD, we wish you a joyful celebration of Eid al-Fitr. Cheers!!!
