Reproductive justice is a movement originating in and centering the work of feminist of color activists and scholars. It expands the framework of reproductive rights to a broader understanding of bodily autonomy, the right to parent in a safe and healthy environment and at a time of one's choosing, and the right not to become a parent. Members of this reproductive justice research working group come from a variety of disciplines and share in common a desire to better coordinate and amplify the reproductive justice research happening at Brown.
This fall, the PSTC, the Pembroke Center, and the Department of Health Services, Policy, and Practice in the School of Public Health will host a series of monthly lunches for people on campus working and doing research in reproductive justice.
