Federación de Planificación Familiar de España (FPFE) In Spain, abortion has been legal since 1985 but only if the pregnancy is a result of rape, if there is a risk to the woman’s health, or in cases of fetal impairment. The Spanish Member Association successfully campaigned for an amendment to the abortion law to remove these restrictions and legalize first trimester abortions on demand.

“On sexual rights, IPPF have made extraordinary progress in an extremely difficult area. They are well positioned to bring sophistication to that debate because they are so big and because of the diversity of their membership. They have an amazing possibility to make these concepts useful for people.”
