"Meet Nika Kovač, the Slovenian activist who just made abortion accessible to
20 million women. In March 2024, Kovač and a network of friends launched My
Voice, My Choice as a formal European Citizens’ Initiative. After they gathered
more than 1.2 million signatures in 15 countries, the European Commission was
required to issue a response. On 26th February, Brussels confirmed that EU
funds can help women in countries with abortion restrictions access care
elsewhere in the bloc, potentially affecting about 20 million women.
No one is too small, no one is too unimportant, if we come together we can
achieve anything. I believe that this work, this fight, is worth fighting.
— Nika Kovač
But it’s not a done deal yet: the movement is being targeted by far-right
groups, who most recently tried to force a clause into the 2027 EU Budget
Resolution that would undermine the decision. Nika and her friends have vowed
to keep fighting."
