Since the recognition of conflict related sexual violence as a weapon of war, scholars have tried to understand the systematic use of it and the consequences that follows. What has been found is that women tend to become stigmatised and marginalized as a result of rape, especially if they became pregnant. Despite this, have there been limited studies of how abortion access affects women's ability to reintegrate to society which this paper aims to explore. This is done by using Mill's method of difference and examining Rwanda and Bosnia and Herzegovina, two cases that are similar in the context of the conflict but had varying levels of abortion access during the crises. The findings show support for the hypothesis that: Countries with low abortion accessibility tend to intensify the stigmatization of victims, thereby hindering their social reintegration . The findings are important for the field of peace and conflict as they address an underexplored area which can potentially inform policy making on reproductive rights during and after conflict settings. However, further research is necessary to generalize these findings since the method used for this paper is qualitative.
