Honduras first woman president has just been sworn

avatar

Maria was just 12-years-old when she was raped by two of her relatives.

She lives in Honduras - the only country in Latin America to ban emergency contraception - and was forced into becoming a mum to avoid jail.

No one should have to go through this. But right now we have an unprecedented opportunity to help usher in a new era for Honduras' women and girls!

Honduras' first woman president has just been sworn in and promised to repeal this cruel ban on the morning after pill. But she is facing a huge backlash and needs global support to stand with girls like Maria.
