. To achieve our global goals, we must agree that: • We will not stand for playing politics with women’s lives. • We will not stop until the basic technologies for safe abortion care and contraception, that have been available in rich countries for decades, reach every village in low-income countries around the world. • We will not be satisfied until all women know their legal rights and reproductive options. • We will not be silent until criminal penalties are removed for women who seek and health professionals who provide abortion. • We will not rest until governments and donor’s put women’s lives first in their priorities for money and attention. Most important, we will engage women everywhere to demand the sexual and reproductive health care they need and the compassionate treatment and respect they deserve. With leaders from Africa and every region,now is the time to begin a new era in advancing the human dignity and rights of women around the world”.
