State abortion restrictions in the US are creating risks to pregnant people nationwide.
Women are dying preventable deaths because abortion care is denied or delayed.
Constant threats and backlash undermine women's rights around the globe, but women still continue to fight against repression.
This International Women's Day, we honor the courage of those working to improve the lives of women and girls everywhere. #IWD26 #InternationalWomensDay
On International Women’s Day, equality must include the right to safe, timely healthcare.
In the US, abortion restrictions are shaping medical decisions—and costing lives. Preventable deaths are happening when care is denied or delayed.

#IWD2026
It’s time to remind US decision makers that 80% of maternal deaths are preventable and women across the country are suffering because #abortion care is denied or delayed.
Reproductive healthcare including safe abortions is a human right!

#EU leaders should never belittle role of int'l law or apply it selectively - as they've done since #USA/#Israel's strikes on #Iran & retaliatory strikes on neighboring countries.
It goes against #EU values & its long-term interests.

Colored map of south Lebanon with two arrows that show the evacuation orders by the Israeli military.
NEW @hrw.org:
The sweeping nature of the Israeli military’s call for the immediate evacuation of everyone in #Lebanon south of the Litani River raises serious risks of violations of the laws of war and concerns that the purpose is not to protect civilians.

The US Department of Defense is reportedly using artificial intelligence from tech company Anthropic in its strikes in Iran.
Why is this important? HRW's @abacci.bsky.social and @verityc.bsky.social explain ⤵️
The European Commission confirmed EU funds can support access to safe abortions for women anywhere in Europe — including for those forced to travel.
A landmark step for reproductive rights in the EU, following advocacy by the My Voice, My Choice movement.

"Western nations and adoption agencies worked in tandem to supply some 200,000 Korean children to parents overseas, despite... being procured through corrupt or outright illegal means."
📢Sweden should halt the deportations that separate children and young adults from their families and act in line with its international human rights obligations.

Black text on a white background features the title of a CNN article, "Abortion clinics are closing, even in states that have become key access points." Below is a photo of a person walking by a Planned Parenthood clinic, and a red CNN logo appears in the top left corner.
Guttmacher expert Rachel Jones spoke with @cnn.com about our new data showing a 2% decline in the number of brick-and-mortar abortion clinics in the US between 2024 & 2025. These findings underscore just how volatile #AbortionAccess continues to be post Dobbs. https://gu.tt/40gawaP
“Aging out” shouldn’t mean being forced out. Sweden is deporting young people who grew up here while their families stay. The government should halt these deportations and change course. Short dispatch by me and @suzebpark.bsky.social @hrw.org

This image displays three individuals with a text overlay and includes a logo. The text reads: "Mongolian Writers Targeted by the Chinese Government. Read our blog post on the one-year anniversary of one writer's disappearance." The logo for PEN America is at the bottom.
“It has been one year since anyone saw Hada, a Mongolian writer, bookseller, and activist who was disappeared from his hospital bed on February 6, 2025,” writes Erika Nguyen. He is one of many writers who have suffered under the constant repression by the Chinese state. More: pen.org/mongolian-wr...
Turning 18 shouldn’t mean losing the life you’ve known. #Sweden’s currently letting young people “age out” of protection and face deportation without their families — even after years in school and community. @hrw.org @christinaabdulahad.bsky.social

Another Trump administration rollback on abortion access goes into effect on February 1, this time for US veterans.
The VA has reversed a Biden administration reform that allowed veterans to access abortion care as part of their health benefits.
The Trump administration is mounting a coordinated attack on emergency abortion care and medication abortion:
Blue green background with a yellow box and green text reading "Texas politicians are restricting access to sexual content online. We took them to court."
The right to access sexual content is part of our freedom as adults, and can be crucial for bodily and reproductive autonomy.
We took Texas to court over its law undermining our online First Amendment rights.
As protesters hit the streets here Tuesday for a fifth straight day, President Trump intensified his rhetoric, calling the Angelenos “animals” and “a foreign enemy.”
The arrest and apparent injury of David Huerta, a prominent California union leader, at an immigration protest has drawn condemnation from across the labor movement.
Adopterade Susanna Johansson kommenterar adoptionsutredningen och Kristersson i diktform i Tidningen Syre:

"Det är ingen hemlighet
att han har bidragit till många förstörda liv
Men det spelar ingen roll. Inte för mig.
Därför att, för mig är det redan för sent."
apnews.com/article/swed... Sweden faces call to halt international adoptions after inquiry finds abuses and fraud | AP News #adoption 🥚
Kristersson visste om att kinesiska barn stulits och sålts men verksamheten inte bara fortsatte, utan han fördubblade adoptionerna från Kina. Hjärtskärande.
Ulf Kristersson måste svara om adoptionerna. "Det är tydligt för mig hur viss migration ses som ett hot mot vår nation och att adoption omhuldas som kärleksfull omsorg." www.etc.se/ledarkolumn/...
Som tidigare ordförande för Adoptionscentrum vet Kristersson mer än de allra flesta. Nu måste statsministern lägga korten på bordet. Viktigt att regeringen tar fasta på utredningens förslag och börjar agera för upprättelse och erkännande för de drabbade.

Vänsternoppositionens kandidat Lee Jae-myung vinner dagens presidentval i Sydkorea. Lee gick till val på att skapa en ny Sannings- och försoningskommission som ska ta ett helhetsgrepp på adoptionsfrågan i landet och nu kan en försoningsprocess äntligen inledas med de 200 000 bortadopterade barnen.
Intervjuad i SR:s/P1:s Studio Ett med anledning av att jag på DN Debatt (www.dn.se/debatt/krist...) kräver att Ulf Kristersson tar bladet från munnen och ber om ursäkt till landets 60 000 adopterade samt implementerar den aktuella adoptionsutredningens förslag.
www.sverigesradio.se/artikel/fors...
Idag ställer jag Kristersson till svars på DN Debatt:
www.dn.se/debatt/krist...
Kristersson måste nu be offentligt om ursäkt och erkänna att staten liksom han själv har gjort sig skyldig till medhjälp till människohandelsbrott och till att ha brutit mot de adopterades mänskliga rättigheter.
