The march for life: young people demand a yes to the child!

Innsbruck, Österreich - In Austria, the debate about abortion causes a sensation. The organization "Youth for Life" has again vividly advocated a "culture of life". In a press release on March 11, 2025, chairwoman Gabriela Huber critically commented on the current abortion practices and described them as a act of violence against the weakest in society. She asked politicians to become active for pregnant women through education and support for pregnant women. According to Huber, liberal abortion policy is rather harmful to women because it promotes irresponsibility and does not offer the urgently needed help.

at the "March for Life" on World Women's Day, to which around 250 participants came together in Innsbruck, the importance of supporting women in the pregnancy conflict was emphasized and finding ways that enable life for the child. Natalie Ehrenberger, group leader of the Tyrolean "Youth for Life", clarifies: "We cannot speak of women's rights before we have not put the right of life in the first place." She emphasized that abortion is not an act of self -determination, but a decision that concerns the life of a child; A child is not an illness, says Ehrenberger.

The controversial debate about abortion is considered one of the most important social issues of our time. The opinion landscape is divided: On the one hand, the supporters of a liberal abortion policy that advocate the right of women are on self-determination, while the opponents, as in an article by cathwalk.de view the unlimited access to abortions as a threat to human dignity. The question of when human life begins and the value and dignity of life itself are central points that our society lead to a profound discussion.
