Ineida Cabral de Sena

Ineida Cabral de Sena is the President of the Institute of Legal Medicine and Forensic Sciences (IMLCF) in Cabo Verde. With over 16 years of experience in the health sector, she has been a key figure in addressing the complexities surrounding sexual violence cases, particularly those involving minors. Her work highlights the challenges faced by young victims in accessing legal abortion services, as the current law does not differentiate between pregnancies resulting from consensual relationships and those from sexual violence.
