Global Conversations sessions are 90-minute lively Zoom synchronous sessions in which students from several international partner institutions interact in a guided, facilitated manner on a list of global topics.  

In 2023, the World Health Organisation reported that around 800 women a day die from preventable causes related to pregnancy and childbirth worldwide. Whilst many of these could be affected by the impact of skilled healthcare professions, much of the burden of pre-maternal and maternal health needs is driven by social and cultural factors. How do we train our next generation of practitioners to navigate the globally diverse set of attitudes and beliefs that surround sexual development, reproductive choices, conception and the role of the maternal figure…? This workshop will help to do just that!
