SAMPLE CLIENT
My client is A.S.P.I.R.E. (Advocates for Safe Parenthood: Improving Reproductive Equity). It is a non-profit advocacy group in Trinidad & Tobago. It began in 2000, and lobbies for sexual and reproductive rights particularly in the area of abortion. I chose A.S.P.I.R.E because their mission is to promote sexual and reproductive equality and reduce the amounts of unsafe abortions.
PROBLEM STATEMENT
How can the Trinidad government decrease the numbers of women admitted to hospitals due to complications from unsafe abortions?
