In September, Mexico’s Supreme Court ruled that it is unconstitutional to punish abortion as a crime. This major policy change comes in one of the world’s largest Catholic countries, where abortion was previously allowed in only four states and Mexico City–and just as abortion opponents implemented severe restrictions across the border in Texas. Join the Center on Women, Gender, and Public Policy for a conversation about the Supreme Court decision, the likelihood of state-level backlash, and the broader implications for abortion rights in Latin America.
This virtual event will be moderated by Dr. Christina Ewig and is co-sponsored by the Interdisciplinary Center for the Study of Global Change and the Human Rights Program.
