When tragedy sparks a movement, we’re reminded why reproductive freedom and safety matter now more than ever. In 2021, Izabela's heartbreaking death from sepsis in Poland ignited nationwide protests against the country’s restrictive abortion laws, spotlighting the urgent need for compassionate and safe reproductive care.

But beyond the headlines lies a deeper question: How can we empower individuals and couples to take control of their fertility journeys in a way that is safe, private, and sustainable?
Why does Izabela’s story matter to everyone thinking about family planning today?
Because it highlights the risks people face when reproductive healthcare is limited or inaccessible. It underlines the importance of having choices that respect privacy, dignity, and health — especially for those who want to build their families with intention, sustainability, and safety in mind.
