License to question authority
What services can Women on Waves provide on the ship?
Even though Women on Waves' application for a license as a first trimester abortion clinic was denied twice, on this trip to Poland Women on Waves will be able to provide abortion services with abortion pills within the first forty five days of pregnancy. Under dutch law this providing women with abortion pills within the first six weeks of pregnancy is not officially called an abortion, but an over time treatment.
