Neil Datta, Executive Director of the Brussels-based European Parliamentary Forum on Sexual and Reproductive Rights (EPF), discusses EPF’s new report Beyond The Chaos, a New World Is Emerging: Making Sense of the Trump Administration’s Impact on Reproductive Rights and Gender Equality. EPF provides technical support to 30 all-party parliamentary groups across Europe to advance sexual and reproductive health and rights. Under Neil’s leadership, EPF has also become a prominent source of information and analysis on the strategies and funding sources of far-right anti-gender movements in Europe and beyond. Neil explains how he expects Trump 2.0 to pivot from destruction towards the consolidation of new norms and creation of an entirely new set of global and regional organizations and programs dedicated to a religious right-wing vision of sexual and reproductive health.
