This is recording 2/2 of the University of Oxford Women's Health Symposium, an afternoon of interactive presentations and networking focussed on women's and girls' health and equality that took place on 4 October 2019 at the Oxford Martin School.

The Symposium provided a forum to consider how the University can best generate much-needed improvements in women's and girls' health and equality worldwide. It aimed:

  1. To highlight examples of research related to women's and girls' health currently being conducted across the University
  2. To discuss the potential for greater transdisciplinary collaboration in the field
  3. To outline the vision for an Institute for Women’s Health in Oxford, focused on ending health care inequalities for women and girls in both high- and low-income contexts.

The sessions captured in this recording are as follows:

~ Examples of current research and new opportunities for collaborative research focussed on a broader range of issues affecting women’s and girls' health (e.g. ageing, environment & climate change) with speakers Associate Professor Katrina Charles, Professor Sarah Harper, Associate Professor Joshua Hordern and Professor Christiaan Monden.

~ Women's Health @ Oxford: vision and opportunities for engagement

~ How can we enhance collaboration across the University to advance the health of women and girls around the globe? A panel discussion led by the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Louise Richardson. Panellists: Professor Chas Bountra, Professor Sue Dopson, Professor Alison Noble and Baroness Janet Royall of Blaisdon.
