BBC News published this video item, entitled “New testimony in Greenland’s birth control scandal – BBC News” – below is their description.
Thousands of women in Greenland, including some as young as 12, had a contraceptive device implanted in their womb – often without consent – as part of a Danish campaign to control Greenland’s growing Inuit population in the 60s and 70s.
The Danish government has announced an independent investigation into this so-called “Coil Campaign”.
But the BBC has gathered accounts from women about recent involuntary contraception, amid growing calls for the investigation to go further.
