The cemetery in Corazol, Honduras, where Debora Castillo's (17) children are buried, on April 12, 2019. Six months ago Castillo lost her Siamese twins in a dangerous childbirth. Her family buried the children in a nearby cemetery while she was still in hospital, but she goes to visit them sometimes. "For a while I feel like they're with me." Several of Castillo's cousins have migrated to the United States -- a future she has considered for herself. Violence against women is endemic in Central America, and in Honduras, it has a particularly high cost: Emergency contraception is outlawed, and so rape survivors can't prevent pregnancy; abortion is criminalized in all cases, and women who end pregnancies can face close to a decade in prison. The patriarchal culture that fuels violence, advocates say, is the same one that upholds some of the most extreme restrictions on reproductive rights in the world. All of this creates a climate in which many women see no option but to flee, risking their lives to travel to the United States.
