Vatican occupied by abortion rights activists!
The Vatican is decorated with a banner displaying the text “Abortion Pills, A Gift From God” and instructions how to do an abortion yourself with a medicine called misoprostol.
Visitors to the Vatican can see the banner after downloading the application Junaio from http://www.junaio.com/ on their smart phones or tablets, click on the magnifying glass in the right corner, search for “abortion”, click on the "Women on Waves "log and turn till the small yellow dot in the right upper corner falls in the highlighted beam.
When looking at Saint Peter’s Cathedral through the smartphone or tablet using the app, the big billboard hanging from the sky pops up in front of Saint Peter's Cathedral.
Not only the Vatican, but religious and governmental buildings all over the world have been virtually occupied. The action is an initiative by Women on Waves in collaboration with Women’s Global Network for Reproductive Rights.
The action is marking September 28th, the International Day of Action for the Decriminalization of Abortion. With the action women on Waves wants to ensure that women all over the world have access to information how to do a safe abortion with a medicine called Misoprostol, which is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.
For more information about the action, please go to www.womenonwaves.org
