  • CEDAW Committee)
    September 15, 2010 The Committee on the Elimination for Discrimination against Women (CEDAW Committee) Re: Supplementary Information on Uganda Dear Committee Members: This letter is intended to supplement the combined 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th periodic reports of the government of Uganda, scheduled for review by this Committee during its 47th session. The Center for Reproductive Rights (CRR), an independent non-governmental organization that uses the law to advance reproductive freedom as a fundamental human right, and the Uganda Association of Women Lawyers (FIDA-Uganda), an independent non-governmental organization that protects and promotes the human rights and inherent dignity of women and children using law as a tool for social justice, hope to further the work of the Committee by reporting information concerning the rights protected in the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW or ―the Convention‖). This letter highlights areas of concern related to violations of women‘s and girls‘ reproductive and sexual health and rights in Uganda. Despite explicit protections in the Convention, these rights continue to be neglected and, at times, blatantly violated. We wish to bring the Committee‘s attention to specific areas of concern, including women‘s lack of access to quality maternal healthcare, to family planning services and information, and to HIV services; lack of access to safe abortion and post-abortion care services; and discrimination and sexual violence against women, adolescents and schoolgirls.

PHILOSOPHY AND THEOLOGY In the debates about the ethics and laws governing abortion, it is sometimes claimed that the risk of death is higher in giving birth than in aborting. Three recent works take up this claim and provide powerful evidence that it is not justified. The first work is Clarke Forsythe’sAbuse of Discretion: The Inside Story of Roe v. Wade.1 A full review of this work appeared in the Summer issue of the National Catholic Bioethics Quarterly, but it is worth noting here that Forsythe focuses par- ticular attention on the question about the risks of abortion just prior to the infamous Roe decision. He carefully traces the articles and research supporting the claim that women risk death more in giving birth than getting an abortion, and finds that none of them were peer-reviewed, none of them were statistically reliable, and none of them provided sound evidence for the claim.
