THE FEDERATION’S REPORT THE UN COMMITTEE AGAINST TORTURE

Published 31-01-2022

In January 2022 the Federation for Women and Family Planning submitted report to the Committee against Torture for its consideration in the context of the preparation of the List of Issues Prior to Reporting on Poland’s implementation of the UN Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment. This submission highlights Poland’s ongoing failure to comply with its human rights obligations under the Convention concerning access to safe abortion care. The Federation for Women and Family Planning calls on the Committee against Torture to consider experience of Polish women and pregnant persons who in the situations as described in the report are refused access to abortion care in the frame of cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment.
