What are forced sterilizations?
The involuntary removal of a person’s ability to reproduce is known as forced sterilization. This amounts to a gross human right violation, and it generally involves inhumane surgical procedures which are performed in poor, unsanitary conditions by perpetrators, who have no consideration for the victim’s health (Forced Sterilization as a Human Rights Violation, n.d.).
