Evolving capacity and decision-making in practice
The rights of adolescents and young people in international law and agreements have evolved significantly from a focus on protection to a recognition of “evolving capacities” and decision-making ability.

This study in Mexico City in 2009 explored whether reg…

Cervical cancer is an important cause of mortality for women in developing countries. Researchers have established a link between cervical cancer and the human papillomavirus (HPV).

We conducted eight focus groups with middle-aged and young women in Mexico City. Cervical…

Forty-five per cent knew that abortion was sometimes legal in their state, and 79% felt that abortion should be legal in some circumstances. A majority of participants believed that abortion should be legal when a wom…
