Sexual and reproductive health and rights are under attack, leaving young people feeling increasingly uncertain about their futures. Last month we hosted youth from across Africa & Latin America to share, reflect, and find solidarity. They had some powerful things to say.👇 🎨: Ipsita Divedi

Since a maternity clinic in Northwest Sudan opened with support from @unfpa.bsky.social, not one woman has died during childbirth. But the clinic closes this month due to U.S. foreign aid cuts, and women will be forced to give birth at home unassisted. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

The Trump administration has shut down nearly all foreign aid, gutting decades of progress and disrupting essential health care services, including life-saving family planning and HIV care. These actions are reckless and devastating, and will cost millions of lives. www.npr.org/sections/goa...

In the three weeks since the Trump admin abruptly halted foreign aid, we're seeing the devastating impact for family planning and sexual & reproductive health care in real time. Health care systems are "crumbling," leaving millions without access to life-saving care. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/w...

Blocking funding and shutting down USAID means stripping life-saving care, including access to contraception, HIV/AIDS, and maternal health services, leaving millions without the means to make informed choices about their health and well-being. 💔

The Global Gag Rule has been reinstated and it will have deadly consequences. This harmful U.S. policy blocks global health funding for organizations that provide abortion information and care, and as long as it is in place, people will suffer — especially women and girls around the world. 🧵
