  • US E-Letterhead
    Dear Committee Members: This shadow letter is intended to complement the periodic report submitted by the State of Bolivia for your consideration during the 109th session of the Human Rights Committee. Our aim is to provide information about Bolivia’s violation of human rights that result from the State denying access to legal abortion in cases of rape or threats to health and life. Judicial authorization is required for legal abortion but is nearly always denied. The denial of legal abortion means that women must obtain needed abortions through illegal and unsafe channels. As a result women are reported to law enforcement authorities by doctors, relatives, partners or public prosecutors, are detained or arrested, all in violation of in violation of Bolivian women’s right to effective remedy (Art. 2), to life (Art. 6), liberty and security (Art. 9), right to a fair trial (Art. 14), and the right to privacy (Art. 17). Unsafe abortions also contribute to high rates of maternal mortality and morbidity in the country. It should be noted that the denial of services because of the unwillingness of judges to authorize them is discriminatory; it disproportionately affects indigenous, poor and young women. The Plurinational Constitutional Court of Bolivia was asked to review the constitutionality of the penal codes regulating abortion in March 2012. To date the Court has delayed the decision. Ipas–Bolivia, an independent nongovernmental organization, has worked intensively with government initiatives to increase and implement the exercise of women’s sexual and reproductive rights and to reduce maternal mortality due to the risks of unsafe abortions.

  • The Realities of Unsafe Abortion in Bolivia: Evidence from the Field by Sarah Thurston1 Ramiro Claure2 Thoai D
    Research Brief Series The realities of unsafe abortion in Bolivia: Evidence from the field By Sarah Thurston1 Ramiro Claure2 Thoai D. Ngo1 Summary More than 80,000 induced abortions take place in Bolivia every year despite legal restrictions that permit abortion only in cases of rape, incest or if the 1 life or health of the mother is at risk. The vast majority of abortions take place clandestinely, posing significant risks to women’s health. In this study, Marie Stopes International Bolivia (MSIB) explored women’s experiences of abortion and their knowledge, attitudes and perceptions on this issue. Findings pointed to low uptake of modern contraceptive methods among poor and indigenous women in five Bolivian cities. A high prevalence of unwanted pregnancy (~50%) among the 1,386 © Marie Stopes International women surveyed resulted in frequent use of ineffective and/or unsafe abortion methods. Women often in the national parliament, six of the country’s provincial resorted to multiple abortion attempts and methods, health departments, the medical establishment, the accessing post-abortion care (PAC) in hospitals only media and at-risk women.

Kimball, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2013 This dissertation traces the history of unwanted pregnancy and abortion in La Paz and El Alto, Bolivia between 1952 and 2010. Although in Bolivia abortion is illegal, an estimated three in five women terminate at least one pregnancy in their lifetime—making the country’s abortion rate the highest in the region. Based on 113 personal interviews and over 3,000 medical records, the project reconstructs two central aspects of reproductive history. The first centers on the social, political, and medical phenomena of abortion and pregnancy. I outline changing policies and debates on reproduction, the evolution of abortion incidence and provisioning, and the emergence of a stable illegal abortion system in the country.
