The Humanist Association of Germany is campaigning for a new legal regulation of abortion outside of the Criminal Code. The HVD presents and explains its position in a new brochure.

The HVD demands that the current legal situation in Germany, which in principle criminalizes abortion, be revised. A legal regulation outside of the penal code is needed to ensure legal certainty for women and doctors providing treatment. A new solution outside of criminal law should do justice to the current state of biomedical knowledge, changing social values and ideological pluralism.
