Reproductive rights related to access to safe and legal abortion are an important issue in womens human rights discussions at the global level because they involve the right to health, safety and bodily autonomy. Although international laws such as the ICCPR and CEDAW guarantee this right, many countries still impose strict bans or restrictions on abortion, which often contradict basic human rights principles. This research aims to analyze womens human rights violations resulting from abortion bans and evaluate state obligations under the ICCPR and CEDAW standards. This research uses a normative juridical approach by analyzing secondary data from primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. The research findings show that reproductive rights are an integral part of womens human rights as stipulated in various international legal instruments, such as the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) and the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW). Although this right has been juridically recognized, its implementation in many countries still faces significant obstacles, especially in access to safe abortion, which is often restricted by discriminatory regulations. Such restrictions not only violate the principles of non-discrimination and gender equality, but can also be categorized as inhumane treatment, and prevent women from accessing reproductive health services equally and with dignity as guaranteed by international law. Therefore, countries are obliged to reform national laws and ensure that reproductive health policies respect womens rights, and are supported by strong international oversight based on human rights principles.

This research concludes that abortion bans constitute a violation of womens fundamental rights, infringing upon principles of non-discrimination and human dignity.States have a clear obligation to reform abortion laws in accordance with international standards outlined in the ICCPR and CEDAW, ensuring access to safe and legal abortion services.International mechanisms such as the Universal Periodic Review and individual complaint procedures provide avenues for advocating policy change and upholding womens reproductive rights globally.

Further research should investigate the socio-cultural factors influencing abortion restrictions in specific national contexts, moving beyond legal analysis to understand the lived experiences of women seeking reproductive healthcare. Additionally, a comparative study examining the effectiveness of different international advocacy strategies in promoting abortion law reform could provide valuable insights for future campaigns. Finally, research is needed to explore the intersectionality of abortion access with other forms of discrimination, such as race, class, and disability, to develop more inclusive and equitable reproductive health policies. These investigations should consider the impact of restrictive abortion laws on womens mental health, economic stability, and overall well-being, and should aim to identify innovative legal and policy solutions that prioritize womens autonomy and human rights. Such research will contribute to a more nuanced understanding of the challenges and opportunities in advancing reproductive justice globally, and will inform the development of more effective strategies for protecting and promoting womens rights.
