In episode 6 of The Right Kind of Family, we travel to Warsaw, where a group of activists has opened the first clinic offering free access to medical abortion, right in front of the Polish parliament. We will learn about the work of Women Help Women, a group that supports women who want to have an abortion in countries where it is illegal or very difficult to do so.

From Warsaw to Budapest, we will attend Pride in the Hungarian capital, which has been outlawed by Orban but attended by tens of thousands of people from all over Europe.

But if resistance is transnational, so is the network opposing the network of parties and organisations working to erode rights. A network that follows a precise strategy, financed with millions of euros.
