DESCRIPTION:\n	Women’s health is one of the most political issues of o
	ur time. Much like the rest of society\, health systems have been created 
	by men for men – and women have been left to fit around the edges. Despi
	te incredible medical advances across the world for women\, they remain in
	fantilised and controlled by patriarchal health systems. PPP’s internati
	onal report\, chaired by Dame Clare Gerada and Dame Lesley Regan\, will ch
	ange this narrative.\n\n\n\n	Join us to round off International Women’s 
	Week on the 11th March 2022 to delve deeper into the report’s findings
	 – as we challenge the status quo and put women back in control of their
	 own bodies.\n\n\n\n	This event has been kindly sponsored by Eli Lilly and
	 Company and MSD.\n\n\n\n	Topics covered during this event:\n\n\n\n	\n		Co
	ntraception\n	\n	\n		Abortion\n	\n	\n		Assisted Conception\n	\n	\n		Cervic

	; Menopause\n	\n	\n		Taking a Gendered Lens to Data\, Research and Policy\
	n	\n	\n		Violence Against Women &amp\; Girls\n	\n\n\n\n	Agenda\n\n\n\n	2-2
	.45pm: Report launch\n\n\n\n	\n		A Women’s Health Agenda: Redressing the
	 Balance is an expose of how we have got it so badly wrong when it comes t
	o women’s health and what can be done to fix it. Globally\, we are about
	 to enter the fifth wave of feminism\, and yet five movements of activism 
	have not resulted in fundamental societal changes for women’s health. In
	 this first session\, report chairs Dame Clare Gerada and Dame Lesley Rega
	n will present the report and dive deeper into its recommendations.\n	\n\n
	\n\n	2.50-3.45pm: Why violence against women and girls is a public health 
	issue \n\n\n\n	\n		Violence against women and girls (VAWG) has been a top
	ic of much discussion both within the UK and internationally over the past
	 year – and rightly so. However\, VAWG is rarely seen as a public health
	 issue. In a recent study of over 20\,000 women\, Victim Focus found that 
	99.7 per cent of this sample had been repeatedly subjected to some form of
	 male violence within the UK. Furthermore\, the World Health Organisation 
	ascertains that almost a third of women aged 15-49 report they have been s
	ubjected to physical or sexual abuse by an intimate partner.\n	\n	\n		Viol
	ence against women is preventable\, and the health sector has a crucial ro
	le to play in providing healthcare to women subjected to violence. In this
	 session\, experts from various disciplines will discuss the health and po
	litical issues around VAWG and what needs to be done to address this syste
	mic societal problem.\n	\n	\n		Speakers to be announced.\n	\n\n\n\n	3:50-4
	:25pm: Keynote Speaker\n\n\n\n	\n		Our keynote speaker will assess the cur
	rent challenges facing women’s health within both the international and 
	UK context. Covid-19 is not a gender-neutral disease\, and its burdens con
	tinue to fall most heavily on women. Similarly the climate crisis is most 
	keenly felt by women across the world and poses huge health challenges. Ou
	r keynote speaker will discuss how 2022 can build on past activism to chan
	ge the trajectory facing women’s health.\n	\n	\n		Keynote to be announce
	d.\n	\n\n\n\n	4.25-4.30pm: Chair’s Close\n\n\n\n	4.30-6.00pm: Networking
	 Drinks\n\n\n\n	Register for this event\n\n
