Nurse, doing an invasive pre-op procedure: what do you do for work?
I’m a researcher, I say.
What do you research?
Abortion stigma.
Oooh there’s a lot. I have no problems with it. But, I do have a problem with xx having their 4th medical abortion.
Welcome to abortion stigma
What an honour to attend Barbara’s incredible book launch tonight. What incredible work. What a legacy! Future abortion related researchers will have an easier time.
“The book is encyclopaedic in its content – meticulously researched and presented”
Read a review of Barbara Baird’s ABORTION CARE IS HEALTH CARE in Queensland Reviewers Collective: https://t.co/I1l4ndPiZ9.
Knowing abortion history “can be a part of imagining a collective future where providing abortion care is a responsibility of the state… & where holding government, the professions & the market to account does not fall only on the committed few.” Barbara Baird
Public #abortion provision has long been determined by individual champions and providers and NOT often enabled by health care institutions. These people have had to continually push up against cultures of reluctance, says Kath Kevin at the launch of Abortion Care Is Health Care.
Congratulations to SPHERE investigator @DrDebBateson for being appointed a Member of the Order of Australia in this year's King's Birthday Honours list in recognition of her significant service to medicine through research and education, and to reproductive health.
2 in 5 Australians now think that #DV is perpetrated equally by men and women. Despite the majority of victim-survivors naming a male perpetrator.
We need to do significant work to shift these attitudes.

*For the stream specifically identified for ECRs*
And no assessor feedback!
This is a complete failure of policy, funding & leadership
"The MRFF aims to transform health and medical research" - yeah right ...

We need your help in reaching our fundraising goal of $9,000 (which will be doubled by ethical jobs). We have been shadow banned across many of our social media platforms! Please DONATE, LIKE and SHARE our fundraiser - https://t.co/PR8a55Eezy
CbyC is being shadow banned on social media, likely due to using the word ‘abortion’. Their fundraiser is live for another few days and @EthicalJobs will match your donation!
DOUBLE YOUR DONATION - make your donation go further by donating during our fundraising campaign. Every donation for this week will be doubled by Ethical Jobs.

I was also told that use of the term “women and pregnant people” is too political and thus inappropriate as an author. So only using the term “#women is thus apolitical…?
Double your impact! Our Double Your Donation fundraising campaign is launching this week and we couldn't be more excited! Thanks to our generous partners at Ethical Jobs, every donation you make will be matched up to $9,000. #donate#makeadifference
@VictoriaPolice Do you think anyone would drive this car unless they had no other choices? There’s a lot of shaming and demonisation of the poor on here and in our justice system.
