Civil Rights Coalition

A coalition of civil society organisations has issued a joint statement for International Safe Abortion Day 2026, declaring that safe abortion is essential healthcare and issuing a call to action. The statement urges governments and health systems to treat abortion access as a fundamental part of medical care and human rights, adding to ongoing global advocacy around reproductive rights.

A civil rights coalition has called on the US Federal Trade Commission to ban AI-driven surveillance pricing in housing and consumer markets. The practice uses personal data and algorithms to set individualized prices, which advocates argue can discriminate against protected groups and exploit sensitive personal information. The coalition is pressing regulators to treat the tactic as an unfair and deceptive practice.
