The stories presented here are based on real lives and real events. Each one represents thousands of women around the world whose lives Ipas works to improve. Our work is urgent: 44,000 women and girls die each year from unsafe abortions, and millions more suffer serious, often permanent injuries. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Ipas works globally to improve the sexual and reproductive health of women and girls by enhancing their access to safe abortion and contraceptive care.
The 2016 annual report describes how Ipas works globally to improve the sexual and reproductive health of women and girls by enhancing their access to and use of safe abortion and contraceptive care. In 2016, almost 600,000 women received safe abortion care at Ipas-supported health facilities, and we reached more than 1.2 million people with information on safe abortion and how to access it. We also engaged with more than 400,000 people at the national, regional and global levels to build support for abortion rights and law reform.
