Abstract

ABSTRACT The year 2021 began with good news: on 29 December 2020, the law that guarantees access to the right to legal, safe and free abortion was approved in Argentina’s National Congress and Senate. This achievement was the result of the struggles of the feminist and women's movement. A particular feature was the massive involvement of young people in discussions, street mobilisations and vigils, with all those taking part wearing green bandanas, the movement being named the ‘Green Wave’ (Marea Verde), as a result. After the law was passed, the organisation Catholics for the Right to Decide (CDD), an active member of the National Campaign for the Right to Legal, Safe and Free Abortion – with the support of the Global Fund for Women – asked us to investigate the role and participation of young people from different parts of our country in the Green Wave movement. This article discusses the findings of this research project.

摘要2021年是一个好消息：2020年12月29日，阿根廷国会和参议院通过了一项保障合法、安全和自由堕胎权的法律。这一成就是女权主义和妇女运动斗争的结果。一个特别的特点是年轻人大量参与讨论、街头动员和守夜活动，所有参与者都戴着绿色手帕，这场运动因此被命名为“绿色浪潮”（Marea Verde）。法律通过后，天主教决定权组织（CDD）是争取合法、安全和自由堕胎权全国运动的积极成员，在全球妇女基金的支持下，要求我们调查来自我国不同地区的年轻人在绿波运动中的作用和参与情况。本文讨论了这个研究项目的发现。

期刊介绍： Since 1993, Gender & Development has aimed to promote, inspire, and support development policy and practice, which furthers the goal of equality between women and men. This journal has a readership in over 90 countries and uses clear accessible language. Each issue of Gender & Development focuses on a topic of key interest to all involved in promoting gender equality through development. An up-to-the minute overview of the topic is followed by a range of articles from researchers, policy makers, and practitioners. Insights from development initiatives across the world are shared and analysed, and lessons identified. Innovative theoretical concepts are explored by key academic writers, and the uses of these concepts for policy and practice are explored.
