in Poland, Spain, Italy, Hungary, the Faroe Islands, Russian Federation, Austria, Portugal, the Philippines, India, Nigeria, Ghana, Cameroon, the US, Canada, Australia, and many other countries.

By means of these meetings, and through SPUC's political action alerts on matters arising in the European institutions, an informal coalition of pro-life groups and leaders is gradually emerging.

We have a long-term, good working relationship with leading pro-life groups in the US and in Canada including National Right to Life, Life Issues Institute, Americans United for Life, Human Life , Population Research Institute, American Association of Pro-Life Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, Campaign Life Coalition and LifeSite in Canada and many other state-wide and federal groups throughout North America. Over the years, SPUC has also collaborated effectively with Priests for Life.

SPUC also has particularly close links with pro-life groups, pro-life leaders and politicians in Australia, New Zealand, South America - as well as many contacts in Africa, particularly Nigeria and Kenya.

During the past year SPUC has co-founded Voice of the Family, a coalition of 26 pro-life and pro-family groups, formed to offer our expertise and resources before, during and after the Catholic Church’s Synod on the Family 2014-15

Africa

African people are naturally pro-life. They respect the sanctity of human life. Motherhood and family are esteemed and cherished.

In recent years SPUC has accepted a number of invitations to speak at conferences organised by the pro-life movement in Africa.

International abortion organisations are targeting sub-Saharan Africa. UNFPA (United Nations Population Fund), MSI (Marie Stopes International) and Planned Parenthood are among the powerful groups pressuring countries to legalise abortion and promoting "reproductive health", code words for abortion and contraception.

The illegal abortion rate is high in many African countries. However, the emerging African pro-life movement is putting up a strong resistance against abortion legislation. African pro-lifers are also working hard to halt the spread of corrupt western values among their people.

As the oldest pro-life organisation in the world, we are able to share our experience of many years with African pro-life activists. We stand shoulder to shoulder with the African pro-life movement as part of the global witness to life.

At the UN

SPUC sent lobbyists to the UN in 1994

Our leadership and tireless lobbying at the very highest international levels has prevented the abortion industry from spreading worldwide. There is no such right as a right to abortion in any United Nations Treaty or Convention. On the contrary, all UN foundational documents uphold the dignity of every human life from conception (fertilisation) to natural death.

And thanks to our work, there is still no such thing as an international 'right to abortion'.
