The exercise of sexual and reproductive rights is fundamental for the autonomy, dignity and wellbeing of all people, especially women and people with gestational capacity. In Colombia, despite legal advances, there are still significant barriers to access to comprehensive and timely sexual and reproductive health services with a differential approach. Gender violence and lack of adequate information aggravate this situation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The Friends of Unesco Corporation is addressing this issue through its innovative \"Decolonial School of IVE (Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy).\"<\/strong>. This program goes beyond simple information on abortion; it focuses on awareness-raising and comprehensive training in sexual and reproductive rights from a decolonial perspective, recognizing how historical structures of power and discrimination impact the health of women, particularly Afro-descendant and indigenous women.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Through the Decolonial School of IVE, Friends of UNESCO is helping more women and pregnant women to know their rights and be able to make informed and autonomous decisions about their bodies and their health. Facilitated dialogues and advocacy work with the health sector are opening pathways for more equitable and respectful access to abortion services..<\/em><\/p>

The decolonial approach also allows interventions to be culturally relevant and responsive to the communities' worldviews.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
