We have incredible news! The European Parliament has just adopted the Gender Equality Strategy 2025, and included support for My Voice, My Choice in it!


The Gender Equality Strategy 2025 report is a long document which includes different topics related to gender equality. And today, the Members of Parliament voted in favor of including My Voice, My Choice into the report with 359 votes for and only 200 against! And approved the full report.


This is the position that was adopted today: “ [The European parliament] Highlights EU citizen’s broad support for enabling everyone in the EU to have access to safe abortion care, no matter who they are or where they come from, as it is among other things reflected by the successful European citizen’s initiative (ECI) ‘My voice, my choice’ calling on the EU to pass legislation that would create a financial mechanism helping Member States that voluntarily join this policy to provide safe abortion care for all those who lack access to it; urges the Commission to take swift action and follow this ECI demand and to establish a financial solidarity mechanism between Member States to ensure women in the EU can access abortion care.”


We are so, so happy! This is a positive sign ahead of the plenary vote on the My Voice, My Choice resolution.


It shows that reproductive rights are a value that unites, not divides.
