The criminalisation of abortion goes against reproductive rights

Abortion is a subject that generates a lot of controversy, while there is a great taboo about its discussion, due to the immense diversity of opinions, of a moral, religious and legal nature about this practice, bringing up countless questions, would a woman be autonomous enough, owner of her body to decide whether or not to generate another life? How does the criminalisation of abortion affect women and society as a whole? What about women's other fundamental rights? Are the conditions for abortion the same for all women? With these questions in mind, abortion is an extremely important issue that directly affects women's lives, as well as society, and should therefore be debated openly, from a neutral and belief-free perspective, so that an assessment can be made of the real effectiveness of criminalising this conduct.
