2024 GLOW Conference: Rising to the Challenge: Women’s and Newborn’s Health in the Context of Global Crises

The 2024 GLOW conference, supported by the Medical Research Council, will focus on the effects of the ongoing global crises of climate change, infectious diseases, mental health, and conflict and migration on women’s and newborn health. It will highlight successful innovation and partnerships that are ‘rising to the challenge’ and meeting these crises head-on.

It is recognised that not all pregnancies are planned or welcome, not all people needing obstetric or gynaecological care identify as women and that reproductive health encompasses the full life course. Researchers and clinicians in clinical, epidemiological and social science spheres all have relevant and important insights to share and all are welcome to come together at GLOW.

Hear from outstanding keynote speakers, participate in workshops, view and comment on poster presentations, contribute to panel discussions, feast your eyes on a creative arts performance, and take part in a traditional Scottish dance event – the GLOW 2024 ceilidh which follows the conference dinner!
