Ipas

Ipas works around the world to increase women's ability to exercise their sexual and reproductive rights, especially the right to a safe abortion. Ipas expands women's access to comprehensive reproductive health care, including abortion.

On average, 46 million times a year women decide they cannot continue their pregnancies and seek abortions. An estimated 21 million of those abortions are unsafe, resulting in about 47,000 deaths every year - over half a million women have died in the last decade alone, and millions more have been injured.
