โœจ We loved hosting Freeda, a giant IUD, in London!

Her message is simple: contraception is freedom, and that is non-negotiable.

Sheโ€™s a symbol of the freedom to make decisions about our own bodies. She's also a reminder that millions globally can't access contraception.

We are united by a shared commitment to equality and justice. We are feminist, anti-racist, and anti-ableist. We reject colonial legacies and all forms of discrimination. We believe in joy and in pleasure for all.

Today, profound global upheavals challenge us to respond with clarity and purpose.

It shines with pride in our work and a deep sense of accountability for the trust placed in us. It carries our determination to uphold the dignity of all people, especially those most affected by inequalities and exclusion. It burns with conviction - steady, bright, and impossible to extinguish.

Our new Brand was born from our membersโ€™ voices and energy and from the communities we work with โ€” straight from the front lines of change. It reflects our membership and the people who bring it to life every day: healthcare providers, educators, activists, movement-builders, and volunteers.

Everyone deserves protection from harm, and no one should face abuse or punishment simply for being who they are. We urge Tรผrkiye not to table this draft law in the legislative agenda. Together, we stand for a world where everyone, without exception, can live freely, safely, and with pride.

Disturbingly, the law would make it a crime simply to be yourself โ€”its vague wording could see people imprisoned for up to 3 years. The proposed law targets the visibility of LGBTI+ persons & anyone who exercises free speech to speak out in their defense, turning solidarity itself into an offense.

Under this proposal, health professionals who perform medical interventions outside the strict conditions set by law could face 3 to 7 years in prison, while transgender people themselves risk 1 to 3 yearsโ€™ imprisonment for accessing gender-affirming careโ€”including hormonal treatments.

We are deeply alarmed by Tรผrkiyeโ€™s possible draft law reintroducing forced sterilization as a requirement for legal gender recognition and imposing harsh criminal penalties on both transgender individuals and the health professionals who provide essential care.
