🌍 World Day of Social Justice: Reproductive Freedom is Justice 💙
Reproductive Justice means more than access to healthcare—it’s the human right to have children, not have children, and to raise our families in safe, supportive communities. It’s about autonomy, equity, and dismantling the barriers that prevent people from making decisions about their bodies, lives, and futures.
On World Day of Social Justice, we recognise that true justice isn’t possible without reproductive freedom. Too many people—especially those in rural areas, those facing financial hardship, and those impacted by systemic discrimination—struggle to access abortion, contraception, and reproductive healthcare. Until everyone has the power to make choices about their reproductive lives free from coercion, stigma, and barriers, our work is not done.
At MSI Australia, we believe:
✔ Reproductive decisions belong to individuals—not politicians, systems, or stigma.
✔ Access to abortion and contraception is essential for gender equality and economic justice.
✔ Everyone deserves to parent—or not—on their own terms, in safe and supportive environments.
Justice, dignity, and freedom start with bodily autonomy. Because when people control their reproductive lives, they control their futures.

Recently, US President Donald Trump reinstated the `𝐆𝐥𝐨𝐛𝐚𝐥 𝐆𝐚𝐠 𝐑𝐮𝐥𝐞’ (also known as the Mexico City policy), a policy that defunds or disallows funding to organisations that recommend, advocate for, provide, or even refer to abortion.
Many people have asked us how changes in the US may impact our services at MSI Australia. We want to reassure the Australian community that abortion and contraception services provided by MSI in Australia will 𝐧𝐨𝐭 be affected by the change in US policy. Access to safe, legal abortion and contraception at MSI Australia remains secure and uninterrupted.
While the Global Gag Rule does not directly impact our operations in Australia, there are very serious and significant impacts for MSI programs in other countries and we understand that it is worrying to hear about restrictions on sexual and reproductive health around the world.
The Global Gag Rule does have a significant negative impact on women and girls in many countries, limiting their access to essential services and creating a climate of fear and uncertainty.
We believe it`s important to be transparent about the Global Gag Rule and its implications. While our Australian services are secure, we recognise and are working to support the broader struggle for reproductive rights worldwide. We are committed to:
🔵 Advocating for policies that support access to sexual and reproductive health globally.
🔵 Raising awareness about the devastating consequences of policies like the Global Gag Rule, which undermine women`s health and rights around the world.
If you live in Australia, and want to join the global fight for reproductive rights, join MSI’s global #ChooseChoiceNow campaign and raise your voice for choice. You can learn more about the Global Gag Rule and its impacts from @msichoices at the link in our bio.
Thank you for being part of the MSI Australia community. We are here for you, and we are committed to protecting and expanding access to reproductive healthcare for all.

Roses are red,
Violets are cute,
Love letters? Sweet—
But choice is the root.
Chocolate melts,
Flowers will fade,
But abortion rights
Must never be swayed.
Show real love today,
By smashing the stigma
And clearing the way.
Loving abortion out loud? 😘
Now that’s a Valentine’s Day gift. 💕
