As Victoria heads to the polls in November, abortion access is back on the agenda, and we need to talk about it. With One Nation gaining traction and anti-abortion campaigners levelling up across the country, this is a critical moment to put reproductive justice back in the spotlight.

- Dr Nisha Khot — President, RANZCOG; obstetrician at the Royal Women’s Hospital, Joan Kirner Women’s and Children’s Hospital, and Bacchus Marsh Hospital
