In 2021, during the 37th session of the Universal Periodic Review (UPR), Nepal was again urged to decriminalize abortion and strengthen protections for the sexual and reproductive health rights. #AbortionSolidarity #ReproductiveJustice #AbortionRights @yanaanetwork @YoSHANepal

Current legal provisions on abortion in Nepal have created significant barriers to achieving reproductive justice. Therefore, fully decriminalizing abortion is the only way to fully ensure reproductive rights for everyone. #AbortionSolidarity #ReproductiveJustice #AbortionRights

The full decriminalization of abortion aligns with recommendations Nepal has received from international human rights bodies. In 2018, CEDAW recommended the government to amend the SMRHR Act and fully decriminalization abortion. #AbortionSolidarity @yanaanetwork @YoSHANepal
