Aïcha Chenna (born on 14 August 1941 – 25 September 2022) was a Moroccan social worker, women’s rights advocate, and activist. A registered nurse, she began working with disadvantaged women as an employee of the country’s Ministry of Health.
Did Aïcha Chenna Have Kids?
Chenna did not have kids. There is no news about her even having a husband. She said that such unwanted pregnancies happen as a result of “unaccomplished engagement or marriage rape, or a love story built on a lie,” adding that a woman who leaves their newborn babies in the street “is one who got to a point where her mind is so messed up and she needs help.”
Chenna frequently defended her goal by saying: “We do not encourage women to have sex and get pregnant out of wedlock. But any woman has the right to protection.”
In an interview with Al Jazeera, Chenna argued that single mothers should be taken care of, stressing that many women consider aborting or abandoning their outside-of-wedlock children.
