The Abortionship
A ship designed by Dutch artist Joep van Lieshout and operated by the organization Women on Waves is serving as a mobile abortion clinic:
WOW sails to the countries where abortion is illegal. Once docked in harbour, the organisation provides information on family planning, safe sex and abortion. Women who want to have a safe abortion can board the ship and be treated in international waters under Dutch law.
Similar in some ways is the project where Architecture for Humanity solicited designs for portable HIV/AIDS treatment centers that could, in theory, treat tens of thousands of people each.
