Birth Rights
Birth rights are the rights of expecting parents in any medical context. They are an extension of patient rights and human rights.
Obstetrics violence is not often spoken about but it is a very serious problem all over the world. While there is no specific legislation regarding obstetrics violence in Italy, birthing individuals still have many rights protected under domestic, European and International Law.
