Why Arise Exists

India stands at a crucial juncture in its pursuit of reproductive justice, where the right to safe, legal abortion remains contested. Despite progress, millions of pregnant persons face legal, social, and infrastructural barriers, rooted in colonial-era laws and societal stigma. While challenges persist, ARISE manifests a resilient movement, driven by the need to counter opposition, dispel misconceptions, and improve access to uphold reproductive rights with dignity.
