An initiative to address abortion stigma in Malta by sharing personal abortion stories & experiences. Malta has 1 of the most restrictive abortion laws globally
Yesterday, we held our annual pro-choice march & rally! ✊ Our theme this year was abortion stigma. We focused on the fact that - whether we realise this or not - we all know and love people who have had abortions (Kulћadd iћobb lil xi ћadd li gћamel abort) 💖
Bill prolongs suffering! ‘Speaking to @TheTimesofMalta, consultant obs & gynae Mark Sant described the new bill as “regressive” ... Sant said one would still need to wait for a “massive infection for her life to be in jeopardy and action taken”’

‘Hundreds of us do it. Many of us are already parents. Choices we make for ourselves, our families, our futures. And yet, the state continues to fail us. We continue to live in fear and silence in our own homes.’

Yes, #Malta will prosecute you for having an abortion for any reason. No, there is no way to get a legal abortion in #Malta. Yes, this is the same #Malta that pretends to be progressive to the outside world.
