| Message | Free acces to these basic services can only serve communities, by denying the poor acces to contraceptives we create big, poor famillies wich will get stuck in a vicious circle of poverty. And ze can NOT allow people to die from a cause that could have been prevented if they had had acces to vaccinations and affordable healthcare. |
