This workshop will focus on the barriers to accessing medical interventions during pregnancy and the systemic gaps in research. Expect open dialogue, diverse perspectives, and the chance to contribute to a growing movement for more inclusive healthcare.
Attendees will discuss key questions ranging from:
– What would it take to change the underrepresentation of pregnancy in medical research?
– What are the barriers to engaging with medical research during pregnancy?
Whether you’re a researcher, healthcare professional, policymaker, or someone with lived experience, your insights are vital.
