Based on the research conducted within the framework of the project "Together for Health-Skupaj za zdravje" led by National Institute of Public Health (2014-2016), the first part of the chapter presents several obstacles-legal and administrative barriers in formal access to Slovene public healthcare system as well as language and cultural barriers-that migrants/refugees face in the healthcare system in Slovenia. In the second part of our contribution, the authors discuss some approaches aimed at overcoming these obstacles that were implemented as part of the same project. Namely, a proposal for systemic changes on the level of legislation, an introduction of an intercultural mediator for women from the Albanian-speaking community in two Slovene healthcare institutions, a training course on cultural competence for healthcare workers and a selfevaluation tool for the measurement of the level of equity in the healthcare institutions. Through a critical analysis of these approaches, the authors try to show their advantages and limitations and to conclude this chapter with some considerations for future developments in this field.
V članku obravnavam širitev dostopa do splava v Sloveniji od šestdesetih let 20.
stoletja, predvsem uvedbo socialnih indikacij kot samostojne kategorije upravičenih razlogov za dovoljeni splav. Opisujem pravno ureditev, vlogo socialnih
delavk v Komisijah za dovolitev splava in prakso odločanja o socialnih indikacijah, torej katere individualne, družinske in družbene razmere so bile upravičene
za odobritev splava. Ker so takoj po uvedbi socialne indikacije tovrstne prošnje
postale prevladujoče, je možno iz prakse odločanja o dovolitvi splava sklepati
na družbene norme v socializmu. Bistven je premik od razumevanja splava kot
medicinskega problema k razumevanju socialnih okoliščin, zaradi katerih so
ženske posegale po njem, in sprememba fokusa države na ustvarjanje pogojev
za politike načrtovanja družine.
