17.–19. 09. 2026 Heartbeat International to hold first 'European Pregnancy Help Leaders Summit' in Berlin

From September 17 to 19, 2026, Heartbeat International will hold its first 'European Pregnancy Help Leaders Summit' in Berlin—in parallel with the so-called 'March for Life.'

Announced speakers at the event in the NH Hotels at Berlin-Mitte are Jor-El Godsey, President Heartbeat International, Ellen Foell, Head of the International Program of Heartbeat International and Cornelia Kaminski, National Chair of ALfA - Aktion Lebensrecht für Alle e.V. (Action for the Right to Life for All, Germany). 

Heartbeat International is a U.S.-based, globally active anti-abortion organization within the Christian fundamentalist spectrum that is aligned with the MAGA movement and operates the world’s largest network of so-called Crisis Pregnancy Centers (CPCs). These are centers that purportedly counsel people who are unsure whether or not they want to carry a pregnancy to term. However, research shows that the counseling is aimed at discouraging abortions and is not, in fact, non-judgmental. Among other things, openDemocracy reported in 2020 that many of the affiliated centers spread false or misleading information, such as the claim that abortions cause mental illness or cancer.
