Covid19: Message of Solidarity
1st April 2020
Our thoughts are with every member of the SheDecides family and the global community as we continue to navigate and confront the evolving global challenges posed by the COVID19 pandemic and its impact on our lives.
Message of Solidarity from the SheDecides Support Unit
This is an unprecedented time for all of us.
Our thoughts are with every member of the SheDecides family and the global community as we continue to navigate and confront the evolving global challenges posed by the COVID19 pandemic and its impact on our lives.
During any crisis women and girls are disproportionately affected, and this crisis is no different. Friends of the SheDecides movement continue to work to ensure her right to decide is protected and prioritized at this critical time. That every girl and woman can exercise her right to privacy, gender identity, choosing partners, pleasure, marriage, children – and integrated services covering contraception, pregnancy, abortion, infertility, STIs, HIV, cancers and violence. It will also be important to protect the hard-won gains for bodily autonomy and choice that have been made over the past decades.
In such uncertain times, community really matters, especially as many of us are being advised to practice social isolation. Staying safely connected is more important than ever and it has been encouraging to see our global community come together, share resources and support one another.
The SheDecides Support Unit is operating as usual and working remotely. We are in this together, committed to creating a #NewNormal, a world where SheDecides about her body, her life and her future. Without question.
