Draws on the findings of a study conducted in three rural districts of the Eastern Cape.

Ulandi du Plessis and Catriona Ida Macleod provide a wide-ranging, incisive examination of the multiple and complex challenges facing women in rural areas in South Africa who need abortions. Their comprehensive analysis illustrates the possibilities of how unsafe abortions can be addressed, maternal mortality reduced, and reproductive justice achieved."
