BRUSSELS - Exporting Abortion is a cross-border, collaborative investigation into the unequal access to abortion in Europe. Journalists from across the continent have investigated how thousands of women each year are forced to travel from one country to another to get an abortion. The investigation has revealed that at least 5,860 women in Europe faced this situation in 2023, and more than 25,000 since 2019.
