Abortion: A civilised debate

This extraordinary debate takes us beyond the usual emotive and tired arguments. Anne Furedi and Professor John Wyatt help us understand a humanist perspective on abortion and discuss choice, autonomy and our attitude to life itself. If sex is to remain fun and not just for procreation, Anne Furedi argues, we need abortion as a backup and we need the freedom to make these decisions ourselves.

This debate took place at the most recent Battle of Ideas festival in London. It was filmed and edited by WORLDbytes volunteers. Further great debates are on the cards for this year's Battle of Ideas, if you would to like to join the WORLDbytes crew and film these great debates, get in touch.
