8. Modern Reproductive Health Activism
Modern reproductive health activism focuses on securing and expanding access to reproductive rights, including contraception, safe abortion, and comprehensive sex education. Emerging in response to historical inequalities and restrictive laws, activists work to address health disparities, advocate for policy changes, and raise awareness about reproductive justice. This movement emphasizes the importance of bodily autonomy, the right to make informed choices, and the need for equitable healthcare for all, particularly marginalized communities. It builds on the legacy of earlier reproductive rights struggles, aiming to overcome cultural, economic, and systemic barriers to reproductive health.
