===Laws & Social Stigmas===
===Lois et stigmatisation sociale===


In Kenya, abortion is only legal under certain circumstances, which include: to save the life of the woman, to preserve physical health or to preserve mental health. As stated by Article 26 of the Constitution, "Abortion is not permitted unless, in the opinion of a trained health professional, there is a need for emergency treatment, or the life or health of the mother is in danger, or if permitted by any other written law."<ref>[http://eaclj.org/about-us/7-fida-and-kclf-landscaped-comparison.html East African Center for Law & Justice: Abortion in Kenya]</ref> This means that other reasons, including rape or incest, fetal impairment, economic or social reasons or by request, are not permitted. Furthermore, for an abortion to be legal, the woman and her spouse must both consent. Furthermore, two medical opinions (one from a physician and one from a psychiatrist) must approve the abortion before it's performed. The abortion must take place in a hospital.<ref>[http://www.un.org/esa/population/publications/abortion/profiles.htm UN Report: Abortion in Kenya]</ref>
