Who should attend? We welcome all people who are interested in this topic, especially health professionals who would like to gain a deeper understanding of the unique considerations when working with migrant and refugee women on sexual and reproductive health matters. This includes but is not limited to practitioners from community health services, hospitals, general practice, Women's health services, local and state government, and university students.
We also welcome health professionals who work in other health areas, such as mental health and prevention of violence against women, and are interested in learning about migrant and women's sexual and reproductive health needs to expand their knowledge of intersections of sexual and reproductive health and their work areas, such as reproductive coercion and sexual abuse.
