My Body, My Decision: Accountability for Bodily Autonomy and Self-Care in a Rapidly Changing World

 Dec 6, 2022 08:00 AM in Eastern Time (US and Canada)

Bodily autonomy and decision-making are critical for the realization of everyone’s sexual and reproductive health and rights and are the cornerstone of self-care. Join the SCTG Country Advocacy Working Group (CAWG) for an in-depth discussion on mechanisms and strategies to promote accountability for bodily autonomy, agency, and self-care. What have been opportunities and challenges for the Generation Equality Forum to mobilize action in these areas and how can we strengthen accountability for local impact? What are examples of successful advocacy and accountability efforts to enhance bodily autonomy and self-care at the country level?

Find the answers to these questions and more at this virtual, SCTG CAWG event organized by White Ribbon Alliance, CEHURD, Fòs Feminista, and Global Fund for Women.
