Las Comadres, Red Feminista de Acompañamiento en Aborto Seguro

Las Comadres is a feminist network of accompaniment in safe abortion in Ecuador, which seeks to accompany women, girls, and people with the capacity to abort to provide them with information and support on safe abortion with medications. As part of their work, Las Comadres have been able to verify how confinement and the crisis have intensified gender violence, with the cases of sexual violence against girls and adolescents alarming. In this context, Las Comadres seeks to reduce the gaps in access to safe abortions for girls and women affected by the economic and health crisis, particularly indigenous women, black women, migrants, survivors of violence, etc.
