Join us for this online event to present and discuss findings from our recent research on Menstrual Cycle Awareness and Embodied Technologies in Higher Education.

This session will introduce the project, share insights from the final report, and invite reflections from stakeholders working in this space. We are joined by Dr Ashwin Mathew (Faculty EDI Lead and Senior Lecturer in Global Digital Cultures, King's College London) and Dr Lindsay Balfour (Senior Lecturer in Communications, University of Glasgow) who will deliver responses to the report. Access the report here.
