Sexual and reproductive health and rights are under attack, leaving young people feeling increasingly uncertain about their futures. Last month we hosted youth from across Africa & Latin America to share, reflect, and find solidarity. They had some powerful things to say.👇 🎨: Ipsita Divedi

Since a maternity clinic in Northwest Sudan opened with support from @unfpa.bsky.social, not one woman has died during childbirth. But the clinic closes this month due to U.S. foreign aid cuts, and women will be forced to give birth at home unassisted. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

On #InternationalWomensDay and every day, we strive for a world with gender equity, where everyone can get sexual and reproductive health care. No matter what. 🧵

We are heartbroken to share that Claire Mathonsi, VP of Planned Parenthood Global for the Africa Region, has passed away. Our deepest condolences go out to her family, friends, and all who knew her. We mourn this immense loss within our organization and with the global SRHR community.

Words hardly capture how devastating these cuts are for millions who depend on UNFPA’s work. This decision has a dire effect on women & girls everywhere, stripping them of critical health care, including sexual & reproductive health services, & costing countless lives. www.unfpa.org/press/statem...

The Trump administration has shut down nearly all foreign aid, gutting decades of progress and disrupting essential health care services, including life-saving family planning and HIV care. These actions are reckless and devastating, and will cost millions of lives. www.npr.org/sections/goa...

In the three weeks since the Trump admin abruptly halted foreign aid, we're seeing the devastating impact for family planning and sexual & reproductive health care in real time.

Happy Valentine’s Day! Love is access to comprehensive care and the freedom to decide what’s right for you. 💘

⚠️ Another nightmare dimension of the Trump administration’s foreign aid freeze and shutdown of USAID: thousands of participants in clinical trials around the world are in limbo without essential monitoring or care, raising major ethical concerns. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/06/h...

Honored to stand alongside so many yesterday to advocate for the protection of foreign aid and the critical health care it provides at the Rally to Restore Foreign Aid Now. 🫂

⚠️ The Trump administration announced today that it will shut down the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), with Secretary of State Marco Rubio appointing himself as its acting head and confirming plans to merge the agency into the State Department. 🧵 (1/6)

🚨 The United Nations has issued a historic ruling in the fight for girls’ rights. Our ED Lori Adelman & Center for Reproductive Rights' Enid Muthoni break down the Human Rights Committee’s landmark decision, setting a new global standard for 170+ countries worldwide. www.context.news/socioeconomi...

The Global Gag Rule has been reinstated and it will have deadly consequences. This harmful U.S. policy blocks global health funding for organizations that provide abortion information and care, and as long as it is in place, people will suffer — especially women and girls around the world. 🧵
