About the Workshop
The National Workshop and Panel Discussion on “My Body My Choice – Reproductive Autonomy and Rights of Women in India” aims to address the critical issues surrounding women’s reproductive health and rights within the country.
With a focus on empowering women through education, abortion rights, access to contraception, and policy advocacy, the event seeks to raise awareness about the importance of reproductive rights and the consequences of lack of sexual health awareness. This is particularly vital in India where women are often shielded from such information, keeping them ignorant of rights related to their own bodies.
Through panel discussion and a workshop with an interactive session, experts from various fields will explore strategies to overcome barriers to access, promote gender equality, and foster social justice in the realm of reproductive health.
This national event provides a platform for stakeholders, including healthcare professionals, policymakers, educators, activists, researchers, and representatives from civil society organizations, to collaborate and share insights on advancing reproductive rights in India.
By addressing key themes such as understanding reproductive rights, advocating for policy change, and strengthening healthcare systems, the workshop aims to contribute to a future where every woman can exercise her reproductive rights with autonomy and dignity, ultimately fostering healthier and more equitable communities nationwide.
