A campaign titled "My Voice, My Choice" launched last year has mobilized citizens across Europe, urging the European Union to ensure that women in member states with limited access to abortion services can obtain the procedure elsewhere in the EU. Equalities Commissioner Hadja Lahbib expressed commitment to women's health, safety, and dignity in an Instagram video, encouraging patience as the EU formulates its response to the campaign's demands.

As the EU's official response is anticipated to be delivered at a press conference in Brussels, campaign organizers have expressed concerns about hints of a negative outlook in the draft response. This uncertainty has led to heightened anxiety among campaigners and supporters who are looking for assurance that the EU will take substantial actions to uphold women's reproductive rights.

The campaign has garnered significant support, including endorsements from high-profile figures such as actor Mark Ruffalo, who emphasized the EU's potential leadership role in championing women's rights. The unfolding situation highlights ongoing debates about reproductive rights in Europe and reflects a growing movement advocating for female autonomy and access to necessary healthcare services across the region.
