VOICED : Reclamo por aborto legal sigue en las calles de Argentina

Thousands of women marched in Buenos Aires advocating for the legalization of abortion in Argentina. Despite months of debate, the Senate rejected the proposal on August 8. The rejection has led to continued clandestine abortions, resulting in numerous deaths. The march coincided with the Global Day for Safe Abortion in Latin America and the Caribbean, with participants donning green, symbolizing the fight for abortion rights. Advocates call for a binding public consultation, similar to Ireland's, to reflect public support for legal abortion. Currently, abortion in Argentina is only decriminalized in cases of rape or health risks to the mother, leading to approximately 500,000 clandestine abortions annually. The legislative proposal for legal abortion up to 14 weeks was passed by the deputies but rejected by the Senate.
