THOUSANDS of women marched in Argentina yesterday demanding an end to violence against women and for access to free, safe abortions.
A large crowd gathered outside the congress building in Buenos Aires with banners against patriarchy, demanding an “end to death from clandestine abortions.”
They were marking the third anniversary of the “Not One More” march, with many wearing green as the symbolic colour of the abortion fight adopted by the movement.
Women’s fight against violence and legal erosion is central to building a democratic and just Iraq, says Dr SALMA SAADAWI
