    Journal Article

    Following the outbreak of COVID-19 in the Philippines, resources for reproductive health were diverted to prioritize addressing the impact of inequities among vulnerable and marginalized groups in the country. Based on a systematic review of the literature, this article unravels intersections of Filipina women’s reproductive oppression, which have come to play in the current COVID-19 crisis in the country. The article draws from Foucauldian, feminist, and critical theories, arguing for praxis of reproductive justice in the Philippines by continuously employing agency against reproductive oppression in moments of crisis, including disease pandemics, and constantly contesting hegemonic discourses and ideologies on reproductive health and overall women’s rights.
