Pohod za življenje

Pohod za življenje is a non-profit association based in Vrhnika, Slovenia working on human rights, health, democracy & civil society.

Pohod za življenje is a civil initiative in Slovenia that campaigns for the dignity and protection of human life from conception to natural death. It is organised by Zavod Mreža za življenje in enakopravnost, based in Vrhnika, under the leadership of Urša Cankar Soares. Its main activity is the annual Pohod za življenje, a public march held in Ljubljana, Maribor and Koper, which seeks to raise public awareness about abortion and to offer solidarity to unborn children and to mothers and fathers in difficult circumstances. The initiative also publishes information on abortion, runs awareness events and lectures, and invites people to sign its Deklaracija ZA življenje. It is part of the wider international pro-life movement that began with the March for Life in the United States.
