start authorizing their own cultural and institutional activities
The Uno di Noi Association announces that it has officially started its cultural activities and after having, days ago, legal recognition and having received some of the initial phase of internal organization. Joining and supporting the Association’s activities is simple, membership forms will soon be available that can be downloaded from the website www.unodinoirsm.org or from the main social platforms. In recent days, the Uno di Noi Association met with a series of council groups and the Union of San Marino Women to illustrate its position on the draft law transposing the referendum question on voluntary termination of pregnancy, and to highlight with force and clarity its public presence. Politics, it hurts to acknowledge that, with the draft law presented, has done nothing but report in a minimal way the dictation of the referendum question, without formulating, with seriousness and commitment, an adequate law. The Association is ready and available to make an effective contribution to the institutional activities preparatory to the examination in the referent in the Council Commission of the draft law, therefore to be consulted. For this purpose – affirms the President Chiara Benedettini – “In reiterating that the only right law on abortion is necessarily the one that prohibits it, we have drawn up a series of amendments to the project presented by the government which it believes can fill the numerous gray areas. of the pro. We do not intend to subvert the outcome of the referendum but, as also noted in the council debate, there are numerous aspects not addressed in the meager draft law launched during the council process which instead requires further investigation and clarification “. Hence the need to provide for a maximum term beyond which the voluntary termination of pregnancy cannot be practiced, except in the case of imminent danger to the life of the woman; the regulation of abortion of minors and interdicted; the right to conscientious objection of ISS staff; the ban on the commercialization of gametes, embryos and other tissues deriving from the IVG, to prevent private interests from influencing the practice of abortion in San Marino and that private subjects profit from a practice that causes suffering; the prohibition of selective abortion based on the sex of the unborn child and the refusal of abortion as a method of contraception. It is necessary to guarantee the woman a free and thoughtful choice, not only by making her aware of the physical and psychological risks that the termination of pregnancy entails, but by providing a path in which the reality of the act that asks for it to be performed and the alternatives is represented. concrete that would allow her to give birth to her child, including that, equally irreversible but open to life, of giving birth in anonymity. In this process, with the appropriate precautions and exceptions, the right of the father of the unborn child to be made aware of the IVG request also falls. Some objections to the bill also raised by those who supported the shared reasons for the yes during the referendum campaign, albeit partially, are however placed within an unacceptable context and system, such as the one that leads to affirming abortion as a right. and self-determination of the woman. On the contrary, the Uno di Noi Association will never tire of arguing that it is the right of every child to be born into the world and that abortion can never be the solution to a problem. Every woman has the right to be supported and welcomed by the whole community and the institutions must do their part, provide the necessary help to guarantee her the right to a peaceful pregnancy. The hope of the Uno di Noi Association is that politics responsibly tackle an ethically sensitive issue with a specific and adequate path to the specificities of our community, taking into account the most modern thrusts, on a socio-political, legal, scientific and health level. to reconsider the assumptions of this practice.
