El Gobierno quiere consolidar España como "país de derechos de las mujeres" tras las revelaciones de 'Público' sobre el aborto La investigación 'Exporting Abortion' ha desvelado que, cada año, más de 1.500 europeas viajan a España para abortar.

El Gobierno se marca como "obligación" consolidar España "como país defensor de los derechos de las mujeres" tras las revelaciones de la investigación #ExportingAbortion liderada por 'Público'

Cada año 1.500 europeas viajan a España para abortar: "Es algo muy duro como para hacerlo a kilómetros de casa" España recibe cada año cientos de extranjeras que acuden a nuestro país a abortar.

España recibe cada año más de 1.700 extranjeras que viajan a nuestro país para abortar (la mayoría, europeas): "Es lo suficientemente duro como para tener que hacerlo a kilómetros de casa" #ExportingAbortion

Opacidad en los datos europeos sobre aborto: países sin estadísticas y extranjeras sin procedencia Cada Estado de la UE recopila y trata los datos sobre aborto a su manera y al menos siete no saben cuántas extranjeras abortan en su país.

🔴 INVESTIGACIÓN | #ExportingAbortion desvela cómo los países europeos miran hacia otro lado ante la realidad de los viajes para abortar y cómo la falta de datos dificulta conocer este fenómeno

'I'll never forgive my country': Women on the trauma of having to travel to UK for terminations “We brought our baby’s body back in our carry-on luggage, surrounded by frozen vegetables,” one woman told us.

"I’ve never felt so abandoned by my country" - While many women can now access abortion services within Ireland, others are still forced to travel for a variety of reasons.

Women shared their personal experiences of this with @investigates.thejournal.ie for our #ExportingAbortion series:

Over 5,000 women in Europe have to travel abroad for abortions each year Legal, bureaucratic and social obstacles are still faced by women, even if they live in countries where abortion is legalised.

This is the final part of our #ExportingAbortion series — a cross-border investigation done in collaboration with journalists across Europe.

On Monday, we revealed that over 5,000 women in Europe have to travel abroad for abortions each year:

'I'll never forgive my country': Women on the trauma of having to travel to UK for terminations “We brought our baby’s body back in our carry-on luggage, surrounded by frozen vegetables,” one woman told us.

"The trauma of our experience has lingered, and having to travel for a termination made an awful situation so much worse"

Women still have to travel from Ireland to the UK for an abortion. They told us about the trauma of this journey.

By @orlaryan.bsky.social as part of #ExportingAbortion series:

'The most vulnerable are still being exported': Why and how women have to travel for abortions Hundreds of women travel from Ireland to the UK every year for terminations.

Removing the three-day wait was one recommendation of a review of Ireland’s abortion services by barrister Marie O’Shea BL

She told @investigates.thejournal.ie this wait means some people are “deprived of care – care that they have a statutory right to receive”.

#ExportingAbortion

Ireland voted to repeal the Eighth Amendment in 2018, yet some women here still have to seek an abortion abroad.

But Irish women are not alone in this. More than 5,000 European women have to travel abroad to access abortion care every year.
