A new initiative launched on 11th December 2019 to help those in Poland seeking a safe abortion, access one either in Poland or abroad. Abortion Without Borders is the result of collaboration between activist groups in four countries. As part of the initiative there is a helpline which links those in need to the required service provided by those who are behind the initiative. Kobiety W Sieci (Poland) is responsible for providing information on safe abortion – the group has more than 13 years of experience providing people in Poland with pregnancy options counselling, including unbiased, factual information about abortion. Any caller who wishes to obtain an abortion will be referred to wither the Abortion Dream Team (Poland), Women Help Women (global), Ciocia Basia (Germany), Abortion Network Amsterdam (The Netherlands) or Abortion Support Network (United Kingdom). These organisations will give information about safe medical abortion pills, internet sources for abortion pills and counseling, advice on abortion clinics, help arranging travel and accommodation, and/or funding towards the cost of abortion abroad.
