The goal of the International Survey of
Abortion Providers and Companions was
to understand the experience of people
who facilitate induced abortions around the
world, especially with regards to the stress,
stigma, violence, and types of discrimination
they face due to their job. The survey was
available on the safe2choose website. A
total of 339 companions and/or providers
of induced abortion, from six different
regions: Latin America and the Caribbean
(56.3%); Europe (14.2%); Africa (9.4%);
North America (9.1%); Asia (8.8%); and
Oceania (2.1%), responded. Considering
these numbers, the results place particular
emphasis on people who work on the
American continent
