*Apologies for cross-posting, please do forward on to any interested contacts.*English Report on the International Symposium on Breast Cancer and Feminism, April 9, 2015, BarcelonaOn April 9th, feminist health professionals, social scientists, humanists, communications experts, activists, and people living with breast cancer met at the venue Francesca Bonnemaison in Barcelona, Spain to examine the social context of breast cancer in the country. The symposium emerged because the co-organisers had been working on breast cancer for a number of years and knew of critical work being done in the country. But they realized that activists, artists, academics, practitioners, and the public were rarely aware of each other’s work. Differences in disciplinary focus, geographic location, lack of time, funding, or ‘expertise’ were all barriers to information sharing. To fill the gap, they convened an international symposium, which was free to facilitate public participation. They are also co-editing volume aimed at sharing new ways of understanding breast cancer, informing those in healthcare and policy, and engaging the public. For a flavour of the symposium you can access the report here: http://breastcancerconsortium.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/International-Symposium-BC-and-Feminism-2015-04-09.pdfThank youAna
