Africa: What drives unsafe abortion in Africa?
Written byNdesanjo Macha
What drives unsafe abortion in Africa?: “In our view two key factors ultimately sustain the persistence of unsafe abortion in Africa: the first is criminalisation of abortionwhich was inherited from colonial times, despite the fact that abortion has since been decriminalised in the “mother countries”, beginning with the United Kingdom in 1967. The second is the limited or lack of access to adequate abortion services.”
