Events
We host various events to bring together researchers, stakeholders, charities, NGOs and affected groups like patients, members of the public and others interested in tackling gender inequality together. You can find details here or on our Eventbrite page or get in touch to make a suggestion or ask a question.
​
We host regular lunchtime research discussions for academics and others, which take place in a hybrid format, online, and in person at the University of Birmingham, to discuss emerging research projects and early findings and to generate new ideas and collaborations. Some sessions are recorded and recordings may be shared, depending on the nature and content of the session.
