We can\u2019t wait to share this artwork with members of the public at the IWD event, to help bring awareness and discussion about the impact reproductive events can have on mental health, and what avenues exist to promote positive mental health around this area\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some of the outputs to be showcased at this event are from an ongoing GW4 funded grant awarded to the researchers to further investigate an understudied, but pivotal area that can contribute to poor mental health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This International Women\u2019s Day event is being organised by Bristol\u2019s Women\u2019s Voice, to be held at Bristol\u2019s City Hall from 10am-5pm, involving multiple workshops and interactive displays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bristolwomensvoice.org.uk\/project\/international-womens-day-2023\/\">View the full event programme<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>International Women\u2019s Day 2023 is being celebrated at a day long event organised by Bristol Women\u2019s Voice.
