Appearing in Nuuk's downtown cultural center, Danish Prime Minister Meta Fredriksson apologized on behalf of Denmark for the harm health authorities caused, beginning in the 1960s and continuing into the 90s.
The air was heavy with emotion as a few of the women recounted their experiences of being forcibly fitted with intrauterine devices as teenagers.
Many women were left permanently sterile as a result of the campaign.
Naya Luberth says she hopes the apology sets a precedent and that it's followed by reparations.
We can finally drop our shoulders.
The next thing is to ensure that we get compensation.
Luberth is one of 143 women suing the Danish government over the practice of forced contraception.
