Manifa

Manifa is an annual feminist demonstration organized in connection with International Women's Day on March 8 in various parts of Poland.

[2] It represents the power of women and how they have the moral right to obtain the final say in their decisions.

[3] The first Manifa in 2000 was organized to protest against a violent enforcement of anti-abortion law in Lubliniec, where police officers detained a gynecologist patient during an examination and forced her to undergo a forensic examination.

The crowd was larger than usually, after the opposition movement blossomed in Poland since the election of Law and Justice Party in October 2015.

The march focused on Poland's strict anti-abortion law and was a response to Poland's ruling party's plan to ban the possibility of abortion of sick fetuses, which has drawn vehement protests from women's organizations.
