At least 38 countries have seen reports of involuntary sterilisation over the past 20 years. The BBC hears from people in South Africa and Japan who have experienced forced or involuntary sterilisation. Watch the special documentary on 20th of April. bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…


The lived realities of women living with HIV continue to be one of hardship, and they are ready to fight against the stigma and being ignored by the state. And that time is now. #Iam48women #MyBodyMyWombMyDecision @boellza


“The power to make decisions about my well-being should reside only with me as a woman. It is my body, it should be my choice, when and how I will have or not have more children.” Forced sterilisation survivor. #Iam48women #MyBodyMyWombMyDecision


Patriarchy and narratives around the sexual transmission of HIV have ensured that we still live in a South Africa where women who are HIV positive face a huge stigma in society and are seen as deserving of this life-threatening disease. #Iam48women @boellza


“Justice delayed is justice denied."Forced sterilisation survivors believe that by not addressing the issue of forced sterilisation or bringing those involved to face charges the government is failing HIV positive women in South Africa whose rights have been violated for so long.


Today forced sterilisation survivors call on all South Africans to speak out against the removal of a woman’s decision to choose what happens to their body. Join us live on Facebook at 11:30am. #Iam48women @boellza facebook.com/HerRightsIniti…


Right to SRH is interlinked with the right to life, health, educ, equality and non-discrimination. A woman’s ability to control her reproductive choice is fundamental to her ability to control her life, this is reproductive justice. #Iam48women #MyBodyMyWombMyDecision


Autonomy in sexual and reproductive decision-making is a human right. It should be universal, indivisible, and undeniable. Let’s continue to advocate for WLHIV to get quality SRH services they deserve. #Iam48women #MyBodyMyWombMyDecision
