The
Polish Association for the Protection of Human Life
The
Polish Association for the Protection of Human Life is non-profit organization
(NGO). Our aim is to bring to the public the most complete and accurate
information about the facts of human life in order to protect the unborn
children and their mothers from the pain and devastation of abortion.
We focus on educating Polish pro-lifers how to defend human life from
the conception till natural death. The statute aims are realized in
publishing and lobbing.
Publishing
The Polish Association for the Protection of Human Life is the editor
of a magazine "Service for Life", which is concerned with
pro-life issues. Each issue is devoted to reliable compilation of one
topic. Highly respected Polish scientists coming from the main scientific
centers in Poland write the articles.
Up
till now, the following issues were published:
The
issue of the overpopulation myth is being prepared.
"Service
for Life" (circulation from 20 000 to 100 000 copies) is sent for
free to parliamentarians, politicians, doctors, teachers, students and
journalists.
All the archival issues are easily accessible to reach on the web site:

Lobbing
The Polish Association for the Protection of Human Life has edited four
million copies of pro-life articles in dozens of newspapers and magazines
for four years. The President of The Polish Association for the Protection
of Human Life has regular lectures in local radio broadcasting stations
concerning these issues. The Association has organized press conferences,
panel discussions, lectures and seminaries promoting the respect for
human life from the beginning till natural death. Specialists from different
countries have taken part in them. The Polish Association for the Protection
of Human Life has prepared 50 000 of posters, informing about the beginning
of life, development of a baby before the birth and the pregnancy hygiene.
It has delivered them to hospitals, surgeries and schools.
The leaflets, posters and give outs issued by The Association are regularly

The Polish Association for Human Life Protection prepared a series of
twenty photos of unborn children (starting from the eighth week till
the sixth month of pregnancy). These photos are available to scientific
centers and to pro-life organizations both inside and outside of Poland.

The Association was involved in the national action connected with the
Polish integration with European Union. The aim was to ensure the Polish
law protecting right to life after the integration with EU. Unfortunately,
the Polish government was not interested in such a guarantee.
