Accelerate action: Reproductive rights and abortion access in Lagos State

Lagos State faces an urgent need to improve reproductive rights and abortion access, aligning with IWD 2025's "Accelerate Action" theme.

Access to safe abortion is a fundamental human right linked to bodily autonomy and gender equality, requiring comprehensive sexual education, affordable contraception, and safe services.
