Recognizing that reproductive health is a concern for all people, not just women, the webinar is purposefully held on 5 December as part of 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence which culminates on Human Rights Day.
The webinar will feature a range of panelists whose work in this area is rooted in Christ’s love and justice.
Topics will include family planning, maternal and child health, and faith-based adolescent sexual education. While perspectives on these matters vary from one context to another, churches’ shared commitment to loving our neighbours as ourselves compels us to ensure that dignity, health, and wellbeing are prioritized in our ministry.
The webinar will bring awareness to the new resource for churches, and will highlight ways faith communities are already alleviating reproductive health barriers, showing how churches, communities, and individuals might discern for themselves the best path toward centering love and justice in reproductive health.
