Abortion Rights in Germany – A country where abortion is allowed but not decriminalised‪.‬ Human Rights in Europe

    • Politik

In this episode, we take apart the legislative situation on abortion in Germany. While abortion is allowed it is not decriminalised. In our discussion with Raphaela Rains from the TekoMaf, a women‘s rights section of Amnesty International in Germany, we speak about the rather paternal abortion rules that exist in Germany. After all, Article 2018 that regulates abortion can be found in the German Criminal Code. ‚What is it doing there and what does it exactly say?‘ Listen to answers to this and other burning questions such as ‚What kind of process do women undergo when seeking abortion in Germany and how does it affect them?‘ Will the recent change in government have any influence in liberating abortion in Germany?‘ in our podcast.
