As the United States Supreme Court appears on the verge of possibly overturning the landmark ruling that gave women the constitutional right to access abortions, courts in many other parts of the world have been moving in the opposite direction.In February, Colombia’s Constitutional Court legalised abortion until the 24th week of pregnancy, part of a broader trend seen in parts of heavily Catholic Latin America.It is not yet clear what effect there will be outside the US from the leaked draft opinion suggesting the country’s top court could overturn the landmark 1973 Roe v Wade decision.
