Women in Poland walk off the job and hit the streets, the seventh straight day of mass protests over a court ruling to impose a near-total abortion ban in Poland. IMAGES
Thousands of women dressed in black protest across Poland in the "Women Strike" campaign against a proposed near-total abortion ban in the devoutly Catholic country where the existing law is already among the most restrictive in Europe.
Poland has furthered tightened restrictions against abortion, its constitutional court ruling termination on the ground of foetal defects to be unconstitutional. Once the judgment comes into effect, abortion will only be allowed on the ground of rape, incest, or threat to the mother’s health.
Activists demonstrated outside Argentina's legislature to show support for an abortion bill currently going through the Senate.
"C'est une grosse surprise et une très belle reconnaissance. Je voulais montrer qu'on peut faire une cuisine différente, qui a du goût, qui a du sens" : à 41 ans, la cheffe Claire Vallée décroche la première étoile Michelin accordée à un restaurant vegan, pour son établissement ONA (Origine Non Animale) à Arès, en Gironde. Une consécration pour ce restaurant qu'elle a monté en 2016 grâce à une campagne de financement participatif, sans prêts bancaires classiques.
