Published: 8/27/2025

Denmark's Prime Minister apologizes for forced contraception on Greenlandic women during "coil campaign" in the 1960s and 70s. Victims experienced physical and psychological harm, with some left sterile. A group of 143 women have filed a lawsuit against the Danish state for compensation. Formal inquiry findings set to be released next month on this "systematic discrimination" issue.
