What do we do?

We fight for Latin America and the Caribbean to be a territory where women and people with the capacity to have an abortion can do so with autonomy, accompanied by feminists who promote free abortion and accompany them from the standpoint of social justice, happiness, pleasure and joy.

For this reason, the Red Compañera is a space for strengthening, exchange and articulation between the collectives/networks/organizations of abortion accompaniers in Latin America and the Caribbean, in order to agree, strengthen and improve the way in which we accompany medical abortion and at the same time strategically influence the debates for the decriminalization/legalization of abortion in each of our territories.

Strengthening of Red Compañera

To develop joint strategies and collective responses, understanding that this process is not unilateral but relies on the possibility that all of us within the Network can contribute and cultivate a sense of belonging through the daily practice of the Network in each territory where national groups are present.

Accompanying each other in accompaniment

Create spaces for exchange, joint learning, and capacity building for all the groups that make up Red Compañera, enabling us to improve the way we support abortions in our territories..

This priority also refers to Red Compañera role in supporting political and public advocacy actions in each country whenever debates arise regarding potential progress or setbacks on abortion.

It also refers to the process by which trust builds support, through the possibility of seeing in the actions of each group our regional reach to guarantee safe, caring and feminist abortions in each territory.

Knowledge generation

At Red Compañera, we seek to participate in regional and global political spaces where knowledge about abortion is being debated. This component refers to our ability to generate:

  • Joint publications.
  • Systematization of regional data on abortion.
  • Generation of evidence from our daily practice as abortion accompaniment providers supporting medication abortions.
  • Generation of knowledge that allows us to reclaim abortion as a normal, everyday practice, creating a positive discourse around it.

Statements

Our Political Statements are developed at each regional meeting we hold as Red Compañera.
