US Policy Cuts Aid, Canada Urged to Step Up

Published 1 week ago
Description

American policy changes are causing a stir in the international aid community, with groups facing funding cuts if they touch on abortion services, provide sexual health info, or support LGBTQ+ rights. This global gag rule is broader than ever, leading to a split within the aid community. Some organizations are trying to comply with the new rules, while others are speaking out. The fear is that without funding, people, especially women, are more likely to die from preventable causes. Canadian aid organizations are urging the government to step up and take a strong leadership role in funding health services with a gender focus.
