in1966: Danish gynecologists secretly install contraceptive spirals for girls and women in Greenland to reduce the island's population
A group of 143 Greenlandic women sued the Danish government in May 2024, alleging that doctors installed contraceptive spirals on them between 1966 and 1970 without their consent or knowledge. Now they demand to pay them collective compensation of almost €5 million for violating their rights.
Some were as young as 12 when, they said, Danish gynecologists installed intrauterine spirals on them in an attempt to reduce Greenland's population in those years.
It is estimated that 4,500 women and girls were affected then. The Danish government said it was "conducting an independent investigation."
