Sarah Soysa, a Women Deliver Young Leader, was featured at Cosmopolitan.com for her work with a confidential abortion hotline in Sri Lanka. The hotline provides confidential, secure information about medication abortion to women in Sri Lanka, a country where abortion is generally illegal. “It’s very difficult to get funding for controversial issues or hotlines operated by young feminists,” said Sarah Soysa, who runs an abortion hotline in Sri Lanka. “Most of our counselors work for free.”

Saba Ismail, a 2013 Women Deliver Young Leader, was also featured in the article for her work on a confidential abortion hotline in her home country of Pakistan. Read the article here.
