Ten years after the International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) in Cairo, unsafe abortion continues to be a major public-health and women’s rights issue. After summarizing the global problem of unsafe abortion, this two-page factsheet outlines the recommendations that have been made over the past 10 years to address this problem, the approaches used to implement these recommendations, and the regressive policies that have undermined them, including the far-reaching global gag rule that was reinstated by President George W. Bush in 2001.
