Workshop. Synergies between pro-choice physicians and acompañantes of self-managed abortions. Facilitation manual

Abstract

Collaboration between people, organizations and sectors is necessary to achieve objectives related to health. In the struggle for safe abortion, the formation of alliances, collaborations, and possible synergies between pro-choice physicians - those who form part to the healthcare system - and acompañantes[1] - those who are part of an autonomous health movement - has the potential to increase access to quality safe abortions and therefore reproductive justice. However, it is unknown how to achieve effective interactions between these two dissimilar figures. The workshop “Synergies between pro-choice physicians and acompañantes” seeks to create spaces where both communities can begin to approach each other and explore possible collaborations and synergy in favor of safe abortion and reproductive justice.
