SRHM Collection:
Ensuring access to abortion as a matter of rights, equity and justice |
|
New articles that will be included in SRHM's Collection 'Ensuring access to abortion as a matter of rights, equity and justice' are now available online. Developed with global partners across research, advocacy and policymaking, the Collection responds to a shared call to address critical evidence gaps and advance abortion rights worldwide.
|
|
Additional papers will be published on an ongoing basis in the SRHM Open Issue and added to the Collection, continuing to expand the evidence base to inform policy, practice and advocacy.
See also SRHM's 2024 Abortion Collection, The continuing fight for abortion rights: taking stock of the evidence - a curated selection of previously published SRHM articles on abortion in a context of political volatility, uncertainty and possibility.
|
|
SRHM’s 2026 Abortion Collection features a cover image that commemorates a historic moment: the 2024 constitutionalisation of abortion in France.
The protest sign, reading “On écrit l’histoire” (“We are writing history”), underscores the sense of a movement actively shaping the future of abortion rights.
At a time of global uncertainty, the image signals the possibility of advancing abortion rights through sustained advocacy and political will. |
|
In this context, Eszter Kismődi speaks with Stéphanie Hennette-Vauchez on the SRHM Podcast about France’s landmark reform recognising abortion as a “guaranteed freedom”, as well as the December 2025 law acknowledging the harms caused by pre-1975 criminalisation.
|
|
|
Together, these legal milestones illustrate how constitutional change can both reflect and shape evolving commitments to sexual and reproductive autonomy, equality and justice.

Rethinking Criminalisation, Accountability, and Responses to Gender-Based Violence
In this episode of the SRHM Podcast, Eszter Kismődi speaks with Subha Wijesiriwardena and Susana T. Fried, Co-Directors of Just Futures Collaborative, about their new campaign,
Justice beyond Jails.
|
|
This important global initiative invites us to rethink dominant approaches to justice, accountability, and responses to gender-based violence - moving beyond narrow reliance on policing, prosecution, and incarceration, and opening broader conversations about more effective, rights-based, and community-grounded forms of safety and accountability.
|
|
Personal and professional reflections from Eszter Kismődi, Hungarian Citizen, International Human Rights Lawyer and Chief Executive of SRHM.
Just hours after the elections results were announced, Eszter hosts a series of conversations across generations.
|
|
Together, these conversations explore how the results of the 12 April 2026 elections may be understood in light of Hungary’s democratic trajectory since 1989, what has characterised the past 16 years of governance, and what opportunities or challenges may lie ahead.
They also reflect on the broader relevance of this political moment beyond Hungary, as debates about democracy, rights, and public institutions continue to resonate globally.
