Exposing Fake Abortion Clinics: Undercover with openDemocracy
Manage episode 304017069 series 2991562
In February 2020, openDemocracy released the results of a nine-month, worldwide investigation into a global network of anti-abortion misinformation projects, as part of a larger project titled 'Tracking the Backlash'. Through follow-the-money research and undercover reporting, openDemocracy found over 700 'crisis pregnancy centres' that were spreading misleading information and manipulating vulnerable people. They traced these clinics back to two major U.S. Christian right groups, both of which enjoy significant political packing and financial support.
Khatondi Soita Wepukhulu, one of the journalists working for this project in Uganda, talks about her experience working as an undercover reporter and going into crisis pregnancy centres. She shares some of the things she witnessed while pretending to be experiencing an unwanted pregnancy and looking for information on abortion, and what the situation is like for Ugandan people seeking abortions.
