Dr Rebecca Ogden co-organises ‘The Cultural Politics of Reproduction in Latin America’ conference

Lecturer in Latin American Studies, Dr Rebecca Ogden, is co-organising ‘The Cultural Politics of Reproduction in Latin America‘ conference with Dr Rachell Sánchez River, University of Cambridge, taking place online via Zoom on Thursday 14 and Friday 15 January 2021. View the full programme and register for this conference via Eventbrite.

The conference explores, “What role does culture play in reflecting and shaping the politics of reproduction in Latin America? What can Latin American cultural studies, and the humanities more broadly, bring to reproductive health-based ‘development challenges’, such as the burden of maternal mortality? How can cultural approaches further our understanding of questions of reproductive justice and rights? In order to explore these questions, this conference seeks to facilitate interaction and collaboration between activists, practitioners and scholars from the medical sciences, social sciences and humanities.”
