Online Campaign
Stories of Power💚
March 2025

In celebration of Women’s Month 2025 & support of the campaign on March 28, we’re continuing the conversation to destigmatize abortions and centering bodily autonomy, gender equality, and reproductive justice through a powerful online campaign: Stories of Power.

We’re calling on all partners, advocates, and allies to speak out and share your story. Whether it’s a short video (2–3 mins) or a written quote (3–4 sentences) — your voice matters. Your words can inspire, connect, and mobilize.

📣 Let’s amplify our collective voice. Let’s resist. Let’s reclaim our power.

Online Campaign & Conversation
Words to Win💚
March 2025

Whether on social media, in the news, or in speeches, our words tell a story. They shape how we see the world and what we believe is possible.

Are we using words that best inspire and mobilize people to support reproductive justice?


This month, IPPF is launching #WordsToWin —not just as a campaign, but as an ongoing conversation. Language evolves, and so must our messaging. We’re inviting advocates, allies, and organizations to join us in shaping narratives that fight stigma, inspire action, and shift power.

Follow along, share your insights, and tag a friend, colleague, advocate, or organization that needs to be part of this conversation.

Workshop
Training on reframing abortion narratives. 💚
April 2025

This training aims to equip Member Associations, IPPF Secretariat and partners with the skills to use winning narratives to promote abortion rights.

The training will take place around the Global Day of Action to Destigmatize Abortions: let’s use this as an opportunity to use words to destigmatize abortion online and in real life.

Language evolves, and so must our messaging. We’re inviting advocates, allies, and organizations to join us in shaping narratives that fight stigma, inspire action, and shift power. Words can shift power. Let us use them to win. #WordsToWin

Community Space
Holding Each Other: A Community Gathering for Abortion Justice💚
March 19, 1:30 to 3:00 PM UTC

Oppression and stigma thrive in isolation—but we were never meant to struggle alone. Instead, we choose to hold each other up. In these times, even as anti-rights forces attempt to erode our spaces, stigmatize our voices, and diminish our resources more than ever, we remain rooted in the strength of our communities, the power of our care, and the resilience that has always fueled our movements for reproductive justice.

Join inroads for a guided community gathering to help us move from uncertainty to solidarity, from exhaustion to renewal.

This gathering is for all inroads members and allies seeking reconnection, reflection, and solidarity across movements. 

Note: To ensure a safe space as much as possible, this event is only for inroads members and verified allies. We are sharing invitations in private spaces.
