KEystone Conversations: Challenging stigma in women’s health and empowering patients
The Pan-Canadian Women’s Health Coalition (PCWHC) is launching KEystone Conversations, a new series of informal knowledge exchange sessions designed to connect researchers across shared areas of work in women’s health. Bringing together members of the PCWHC, NWHRI innovation grantees and other partners, these conversations will create space to exchange insights, explore common challenges and spark collaboration. Guided by participant facilitators, each session will foster open dialogue, peer learning and new opportunities for partnership in a relaxed, interactive format.
On June 17 at 12 p.m. EDT, our first KEystone conversation will explore how stigma continues to shape experiences in women’s health and what it takes to support more informed, empowered patient advocacy. Bringing together researchers and partners, this informal session will create space for open dialogue on where stigma shows up most in care, how it shapes access and outcomes, and how it can be challenged.
