NUEVA YORK, NY <\/strong>\u2014 On September 22, 2023, Brazil's Supreme Court began voting on a lawsuit seeking to decriminalize abortion up to 12 weeks of gestation. The president of the Court, Rosa Weber, gave the green light on September 19 to initiate the voting, a process that may take several weeks or even months. Justice Weber, whose retirement from the court is imminent, cast her vote today in favor of decriminalization.<\/p>\n

Actualmente, el aborto solo es legal cuando alguien ha sido v\u00edctima de violencia sexual, cuando su vida corre peligro o cuando el feto tiene anencefalia. Las estad\u00edsticas muestran que la actual criminalizaci\u00f3n no ha reducido el n\u00famero de abortos en Brasil: seg\u00fan la Encuesta Nacional sobre el Aborto de 2021, se produce un aborto cada minuto, lo que supone 1369 al d\u00eda o 500 000 al a\u00f1o. Entre 2014 y 2022, 2758 mujeres fueron procesadas penalmente por abortar en Brasil, seg\u00fan el Consejo Nacional de Justicia.<\/p>\n

Si la mayor\u00eda de los jueces del Tribunal votan a favor, el aborto se despenalizar\u00e1 hasta las 12 semanas, lo que equiparar\u00eda a Brasil con otros pa\u00edses de la regi\u00f3n donde el aborto es legal, como Cuba, Puerto Rico y Uruguay., Argentina<\/a>, Colombia<\/a> y M\u00e9xico<\/a>. El aborto inseguro es un problema de salud p\u00fablica que agrava las desigualdades existentes y afecta especialmente a las mujeres j\u00f3venes de raza negra, seg\u00fan una encuesta reciente realizada por la Universidad de Brasilia.<\/a><\/p>\n

Las organizaciones feministas, lideradas por nuestro socio ANIS<\/a>, no se detendr\u00e1 hasta que se ampl\u00eden los derechos reproductivos en Brasil para que todas las mujeres, ni\u00f1as y personas de g\u00e9nero diverso puedan tomar decisiones sobre sus propios cuerpos y sus propias vidas. El aborto legal y seguro es una necesidad de salud y, por lo tanto, debe ser atendido por pol\u00edticas de salud y no controlado por leyes penales.<\/p>\n

Gabriela Rond\u00f3n y Luciana Brito, codirectoras de ANIS,<\/strong> dijo lo siguiente en respuesta a la decisi\u00f3n del juez:<\/p>\n\n

\n

\"Justice Weber's opinion is a milestone for the understanding of sexual and reproductive rights as human rights, not only for Brazil, but internationally. We hope that this vote marks a new chapter in the history of protecting the rights of women, girls and people who can become pregnant in the Americas.\"<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Following the filing of this case in 2017, feminist movements efforts to organize and mobilize have increased. At the Festival For Women's Lives in 2018, held during the Court\u2019s public hearing on the case, Brazilian feminists took up the now world-famous green bandanas as a symbol of solidarity with Argentinian activists and showed the world that Brazil was joining la Ola Verde<\/a>.<\/p>\n

En respuesta a este momento hist\u00f3rico en la Suprema Corte de Justicia de Brasil, Giselle Carino, directora ejecutiva de <\/strong>F\u00f2s Feminista<\/strong><\/a>,<\/strong> una alianza feminista internacional, emiti\u00f3 la siguiente declaraci\u00f3n:<\/p>\n\n

\n

\u201cNuestro ecosistema de socios feministas sigue trabajando sin descanso para demostrar los efectos nocivos de la criminalizaci\u00f3n del aborto en las mujeres, las ni\u00f1as y las personas de g\u00e9nero diverso. Agradecemos el liderazgo de ANIS al llevar este caso ante la Corte y tambi\u00e9n reconocemos las importantes contribuciones de CEPIA, Cat\u00f3licas pelo Direito de Decidir, Nem Presa Nem Morta y Curumim, entre otras.<\/p>\n

\u201cF\u00f2s Feminista conf\u00eda en que los jueces del Tribunal Supremo de Brasil fallar\u00e1n a favor de los derechos a la salud y a la vida de todos los brasile\u00f1os, y estamos trabajando estrechamente con nuestros socios para que esto sea posible. Este caso lleva seis a\u00f1os pendiente, lo que significa que al menos tres millones de mujeres han tenido que recurrir a un aborto potencialmente inseguro mientras esperaban que el Tribunal Supremo protegiera sus derechos. Las mujeres y ni\u00f1as brasile\u00f1as no deber\u00edan tener que esperar ni un d\u00eda m\u00e1s.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis case represents an important opportunity for the Brazilian Court to show that they are in harmony with international agreement regarding the legitimacy of courts to decide on abortion cases. Colombia and Mexico are recent examples that have shown how, in democratic republics, it is up to the courts to protect fundamental rights that are under threat. The right to abortion is consistent with the right to health, life, gender and racial equality, and to be free from torture.\"<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

La votaci\u00f3n brasile\u00f1a para despenalizar el aborto forma parte del creciente Ola verde por los derechos reproductivos<\/a> que se est\u00e1 extendiendo por Am\u00e9rica Latina y el Caribe. La Ola Verde surgi\u00f3 en Argentina cuando diversos grupos de la sociedad civil se unieron en torno a la demanda de despenalizar el aborto, lo que culmin\u00f3 con la aprobaci\u00f3n de una ley en diciembre de 2020 que permite a las personas interrumpir su embarazo durante el primer trimestre.<\/p>\n

El auge de la Ola Verde contrasta fuertemente con los acontecimientos en Estados Unidos, donde la Suprema Corte ha eliminado el derecho constitucional al aborto y ha intentado prohibir los medicamentos que se han utilizado de forma segura para controlar y interrumpir embarazos.<\/p>\n
