At its Executive Board Meeting in June 2011, the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) released new Guidelines on ‘Female Contraceptive Sterilization’. These Guidelines recognise the long history of forced and coerced sterilisation of marginalised women, including women with disabilities, and provide detailed recommendations for when and how consent to sterilization can be obtained.
