This webinar aims to explore the practical application of intersectionality when working with migrant and refugee women on sensitive topics.
About this Event

Have you ever heard of cultural safety/cultural competence? Do you know the term can have very specific application? What does it mean exactly and what does it look like in practice?

In this webinar, we'll dive deep into real-life case studies and engage in a dynamic panel discussion to explore how theoretical concepts translate into practical action. Hear firsthand accounts from experts who have successfully implemented strategies to address the unique needs of migrant and refugee communities in sexual and reproductive health contexts.

What you will hear from the webinar?

Whether you attended the first webinar or are joining us for the first time, "Beyond Theory" offers valuable insights and actionable steps for healthcare professionals and advocates alike.

Don't miss this opportunity to bridge the gap between theory and practice. Register now to secure your spot and hear from our knowledgeable guest speakers who have extensive experiences working with migrant and refugee women on sexual and reproductive health from Multicultural Centre for Women's Health (MCWH) and Multicultural Health & Support Service (MHSS) to share their invaluable insights.

--------------------------------------------

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.
