We conducted a survey of tertiary students in Far North Queensland to ascertain their knowledge of local abortion services and of abortion law in Queensland. Important gaps were demonstrated in their knowledge of the law and of the availability of abortion services. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 52(3), p. 299-301 | Publisher: | Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Asia | Place of Publication: | Australia | ISSN: | 1479-828X 0004-8666 |
