Many young women have the misconception that accessing a #SafeAbortion will affect your ability to get pregnant in future! This is wrong, medical abortions have been found to have no effect on future fertility! #IamNala

#Abortions can not cause pain to the fetus! This is because Abortion occurs before a fetus has the neurological ability to feel pain.

Abortion is a personal choice and many women access it for different reasons. There is no evidence of long term effects on one's mental health! #AbortionIsHealthCare #IamNala

Remember, emergency contraceptives work by suppressing ovulation by preventing the fertilisation of the egg. This is not an abortion.

On this International Safe Abortion Day, may we be reminded and be made aware, that #SafeAbortion under the Penal Code, is NOT illegal in Malawi, but rather, legally restricted. A thread...

We completed DRR and humanitarian response for WLOs, facilitated by UN Women Malawi and the Ministry of Gender, Malawi. We developed action plans, and we believe that with the knowledge and skills gained in this training, more WLOs will be able to respond to crises.
