Opposition Watch

As important as news about successes in reforming laws and improving and increasing women’s access to safe abortion, is news about the forces who stand in opposition and wish to curtail every woman’s right to control her own fertility.

This section of the site will inform and educate users about the latest schemes and pronouncements coming from the key opponents of reproductive rights.

As with other sections of the site, OPPOSITION WATCH will have its own latest news panel, a forum facility and a library containing the latest relevant resources.
