March 15: Webinar women and gender in mental health

Women and men face different challenges when it comes to mental health, both due to differences in their bodies and different roles, positions and chances in society. Transgenders, non-binary and queer people face additional challenges. How can we design our systems in such a way that they cater optimally to our sex and gender specific mental health needs?

We are delighted with our international set of speakers:

• Prof. Dr. Anne-Laure Sutter-Dallay (Psychiatrist and child-psychiatrist at C.H. Charles Perrens hospital, Bordeaux) on ‘The Maternal Brain’
• Oliva Nalwadda (Psychologist & Researcher at Butabika National Referral Mental Hospital, Kampala; Founder of Uzima Ari Uganda) on ‘Group-based problem-solving therapy for perinatal depression in Uganda’
• Linda Hoeksema (Researcher at Groningen University & mental health service Lentis) on ‘Gender and sex differences in Psychosis’
