I am pleased to share a new Portuguese translation of Pathfinder International’s recently developed Abortion Policy Scan for Advocacy (Análise para Advocacia da Política do Aborto). This tool is meant to help organizations and groups advocate for policy changes that increase access to safe, legal abortion around the world. It is also available in English and French).

This tool is intended to help organizations assess the official policies and laws governing abortion care as compared with the actual situation on the ground. Users can then identify challenges to and opportunities for improving access to safe abortion through policy change. A team can use this tool as an interview guide with key informants and a research guide when studying relevant documents. After assessing the policy and on-the-ground contexts for abortion and identifying opportunities for advocacy using this tool, users can then turn to Pathfinder’s Straight to the Point Advocacy package to plan a specific advocacy initiative. These three simple tools are available in English, French, and Portuguese.

Apologies for cross-posting!
Best,
