'Shifting the Dial Towards Inclusion in Menopause'

About this event

Our intention is, together with Marissa Ellis from Diversily, to share thoughts and ideas to be inform a collective White Paper for influencing change.

A reminder of ‘why?’ we’re doing this… to move closer to our Vision!

"Our Vision is that menopause information, educational resources, policies, support services and spaces, are equitable and considerate of the diversity of experience of menopause.

In striving for equity, we call for for the additional oppression and discrimination of the most marginalised in society to be recognised, acknowledged, and acted upon, so that all all those navigating through their menopause journey, whether locally, or globally, can experience a dignified menopause."

In 2021 the Menopause Inclusion Collective kickstarted talk on themes of inclusion and menopause, shining a light on those experiencesng outside of the frame of being a white, middle class, cis-gendered, educated, wealth and health privileged woman.

However, despite hearing more about making menopause inclusive, equitable, accessible and equal, those of us within marginalised groups and those that recognise that menopause experiences are nuanced and influenced by many factors, might not feel much has changed yet in terms of tangible outcomes.

In this discussion we hope to identify how far we have come and what is yet still to be done to make menopause inclusive across support spaces, services and in resources.
