Dear friends and colleagues,

 

We are happy to share with you one of our big projects of 2023:  

The Abortion Framing Toolkit- your companion to draft abortion messages. 

 

Working in the field of abortion care always involves communication with women and pregnant persons, service users, policymakers, donors, media, and the general public.  

 

The way we craft our messages has a significant impact on the perceptions and realities around abortion access. It affects:  

  • options that people perceive as available to them, 
  • ability of providers to do their job and provide high-quality services, 
  • people’s ability to support us and join abortion advocacy. 

 

Changing the narratives on abortion is a collective and continuous effort, from local to global and back, and we as a movement are in it for the long run. This toolkit is our contribution to the conversation to make abortions accessible to everyone who needs them in a way that serves their lives, needs, and wishes. 

 

Available in English, French, Spanish, and Thai, you can download the toolkit from our website. Be sure to check out Chapter 4 which explores the 12 common perspectives on abortion!  

 

A big thank you goes out to the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF) and our project partners: the Global Consortium for Abortion and Reproductive Self-care (Global Care), Profamilia, and Ipas who supported this work.  

 

Check out the toolkit and make sure to share it in your activist & abortion circles.

Connect with us! We'd love to be in touch and hear your experiences and ideas to grow and learn together as a global movement and better share them with our communities.
