In conversation about the disruptive potential of Argentina’s feminist movements

What can feminist movements worldwide learn from Argentina? A lot it seems.


In this episode, Lea Happ, PhD student in the Department of Global Health & Social Medicine talks to her supervisor Dominique Béhague about her research on the feminist activist networks in Argentina. She studies how the movement to legalise abortion transformed when that goal was realised in December 2020. Lea shares the insights we can learn from Argentina to inform feminist movements working for reproductive rights in other parts of the world.
