A really brilliant first day at the Obstetric Violence in the Mexican Context Workshop organised by @ethicsinthenews and GIRE. It was a joy to talk about my work with such a wonderful bunch of people. Bring on Day 2!

New BSC Blog: 'The Criminal Justice and Courts Act in the Obstetric Context'. Is the Care Worker/Care Provider Offences a missed opportunity to combat obstetric violence? @FrancesHand_ explores this potentially underused statute. Read it here: thebscblog.wordpress.com

In the sixth post of our Birth Trauma takeover Frances Hand and Anna Nelson explore what is missing from the UK Government Report, including the systematic harms reported during experiences of maternity care. thepolyphony.org/2025/02/17/obs…

"...recommendations to improve maternity care services that are made to languish in perpetuity are not useful". The result of an interogation of the Birth Trauma report, via a Reproductive Justice framework, there is a lot of chatter but not a lot of action.

New podcast interview with Feminist Law is out discussing our ongoing work on unplanned obstetric interventions. Give us a listen here: feministlaw.org/podcast/episod…

@ObstetricJP Hi, I love reading these testimonies, and often use them in my research. But your website is currently locked?? Would you mind helping me

"I had chosen a home birth to stay out of the hospital... but now I was being threatened by this midwife in my home with the same violence I was already trying to avoid." New #ObstetricViolence story submission on the blog: obstetricjustice.org/community-stor…

Seit Jahren ärgern wir uns über die jur Ausbildung, ohne dass die JuMiKo was tut, aber es hilft ja nix. Also: ein weiterer Text dazu, was sich ändern muss. I tried to sweeten it with pop culture though🍭 Danke für das Symposium @Verfassungsblog! verfassungsblog.de/in-a-barbie-wo…

Schon jetzt ist der Zugang zu #Abtreibungen desolat. Die schlechte Nachricht: Mit der AfD könnte es noch schlimmer werden. Die gute Nachricht: Wer die Einfallstore kennt, kann sie schließen. Freu mich sehr, mit @Marie_L_ME zum @Verfassungsblog Symposium beizutragen!
