In collaboration with Sexual and Reproductive Health Australia, this forward-looking webinar will explore how contraceptive counselling at the time of abortion care can be reimagined through a reproductive justice lens. Bringing together clinical and lived experience perspectives, the discussion will consider how to centre individual agency, autonomy and choice at every step of the consultation, and what this means for more person-centred, equitable and respectful abortion care.
