Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM) is hosting a special event on Wednesday 4th March to celebrate International Women’s Day.

The programme brings together inspiring internal and external speakers to explore critical issues in women’s health and gender equality, including advocacy for improved women’s healthcare, gender equality initiatives in Malawi, the censorship of women’s health information on social media, and more. The full schedule can be found below.

Please register as soon as possible. You are welcome to attend the sessions that interest you most, though we encourage participants to stay for as many talks as they can. The event will open with a complimentary lunch and conclude with drinks and networking, offering an opportunity to continue the conversation and connect with our speakers. Registration is mandatory to participate in the lunch or networking event.

Online attendance will be available for colleagues based outside the UK or with caring responsibilities. To confirm virtual attendance, please contact athena.swan@lstmed.ac.uk

It promises to be an inspiring event, highlighting the outstanding work being done to advance gender equality at LSTM and beyond. We very much hope you can join us.
