The WHO Takes Sides in Abortion Debate – Intercessors for America

The WHO claims to be unbiased and nonpartisan, but now it’s looking at siding with one of the most notorious pro-abortion groups in America.

From The Washington Stand. The World Health Organization is considering partnering with a radical pro-abortion group in the United States.

In a December 2023 executive board meeting, the secretariat of WHO proposed that the Center for Reproductive Rights (CRR) be admitted into official relations with the organization. Such a partnership includes collaboration between WHO and CRR on agreed objectives and activities for a three-year period to uphold WHO’s mission to “contribute significantly to the advancement of public health.”

Yet CRR is one of the most influential pro-abortions organizations in the United States. The George Soros-funded advocacy group repeatedly sues to stop or overturn pro-life laws in the United States and abroad and is known for its pro bono work to that effect. …

In a letter to WHO Executive Board members dated January 22, multiple American pro-life organizations, including Family Research Council, urged the organization to oppose giving CRR official status due to its efforts to “manipulate international cooperation to promote abortion as a human right.” …

Not only would WHO’s reputation be tainted by aligning itself with CRR’s pro-abortion advocacy, but also its pro-transgender and other controversial sexual politics, the letter emphasizes. Further, such a clear partisan alliance could jeopardize the funding WHO receives from the United States, the letter warns, especially in the event of a future pro-life administration. Currently, the U.S government is WHO’s largest donor, receiving $700 million from the U.S. in 2022 alone. …

This isn’t the first time the WHO has been criticized for privileging one side of a contentious ethical debate over others. Earlier this month, the U.N. special rapporteur on violence against women and girls accused the organization of taking an unbalanced, pro-medicalizing approach in its development of new health care guidelines for transgender-identifying individuals.
