El derecho fundamental a la interrupción voluntaria del embarazo en Colombia
In the first place, this research intends to delimit the internal and international regulatory framework in this area and, in this way, become a useful tool to advance the enormous challenge that implies the exercise of the fundamental right to abortion.
Secondly, in a context marked by a medicalized and criminal vision of abortion, this research aims to show that talking about abortion does not only mean referring to a medical procedure or a crime, but also to a human rights issue, which implies talking about human dignity, physical and mental integrity and autonomy of women, girls and adolescents.
To meet these objectives, the study is based on a review of the main international human rights standards that favor the recognition, protection and guarantee of sexual and reproductive rights and, in particular, access to abortion. Likewise, the investigation shows how Colombian constitutional jurisprudence has made use of these standards, how it has incorporated them into domestic law and how, even, it has exceeded them.
