UN report could be used to make abortion a right 11 March 2008

Rights of the unborn under international law

It is hard to imagine a more neglected area of human rights discussion, from the perspective of international law, than the rights of the unborn. Amnesty for Babies is a pro-life initiative, launched in Geneva on 28th June 2006, which is supported by organizations worldwide and is organized, on their behalf, by SPUC. The Amnesty for Babies campaign is promoting the rights of unborn children through a petition from legislators (e.g. members of parliament) to the international community. Please visit the Amnesty for Babies website www.amnestyforbabies.com to find out what you can do to support the campaign.
