In Mexico City, Oaxaca, Hidalgo, Veracruz, and Baja California, access to voluntary and safe abortion is the law. In Mexico, no one should be punished for choosing not to continue their pregnancy.

IPPF’s Member Association, Mexfam will not stop until it is legal and safe for everyone.


The IPPF is a locally owned, globally connected civil society movement.

We work to ensure people are free to make choices about their sexuality and wellbeing, in a world free from discrimination.
