Committee on Women's Rights and Gender Equality of the European Parliament (FEMM) shows that the world's population is "missing" almost 200 million women.
The FEMM Commission acknowledges that among main reasons of this highly dangerous phenomena is a widespread practice of selective abortion. Nevertheless, the FEMM Ctee is not willing to discuss the issue of abortion in general in this context.
Ordo Iuris already pointed to the fact in its comments to the draft report on WHO Health in the Post-2015 Development Agenda. OI emphasised that the spread of abortion creates favorable conditions for the development of the most brutal forms of discrimination against women in the world.
Wednesday's presentation in Brussels of the European Union reform plan developed by Poland’s Ordo Iuris Institute and Hungary’s Mathias Corvinus Collegium garnered significant interest. Nearly a hundred MEPs and their staff from many countries came to the presentation of this proposal.
• The pressure on the European Union’s southern borders has continued unabated since the great migration crisis of 2015.
• Representatives of Ordo Iuris took part in the second round of consultations ahead of the 58th Session of the UN Commission on Population and Development (CPD58) on global health policy.
