JS10 recommended to urgently reform the law so as to decriminalize abortion and legalize abortion on request, at least up until 12 weeks of pregnancy, and adopt the necessary accompanying guidelines to ensure women can access safe abortion services in a timely manner and without unnecessary authorization or certification requirements. JS10 recommended to review the delivery of sexuality education in schools, especially teachers’ preparation, qualifications and attitude, communication with students, programs, topics and style of presenting them. The sexuality education should be obligatory and comprehensive. [Para 37]
