Bye 2025 🙌🏻
Congrats!!! 🥂
Our fourth reflection engages with @drrchadwick.bsky.social "The Many Faces of Birthing Freedom".
We explore how freedom in birth is shaped by structures, relationships & values beyond choice, and what this means for #ObstetricViolence. Read it here: durham.ac.uk/research/ins...
Our third reflection engages with Chervenak et al’s claim that ‘obstetric violence is a misnomer’.
We explore why language matters, how #ObstetricViolence connects to gender-based violence, & why ethics alone cannot address systemic harm. Read it here: durham.ac.uk/research/ins...
Our second reflection in the series engages with Roberto Castro’s analysis of authoritarian medical habitus in Mexico.
#ObstetricViolence is not just about resources but about entrenched medical culture, hierarchy & control. Read it here: durham.ac.uk/research/ins...
Our first reflection explores whether criminalisation is the right response to #ObstetricViolence.
Drawing on Barbosa et al’s chapter, we consider the challenges of definition, systemic liability & alternatives to punitive law. Read it here: durham.ac.uk/research/ins...
The Obstetric Violence Reading Group has been busy!
We’ve explored publications by leading scholars that challenge and enrich how we think about #ObstetricViolence.

Thanks! 💗 The reading group had such a rich discussion and so much more can be said, but sick of giving these sorts of publications our time and effort 🙄
(And! I was meant to share the blog posts but been so busy 🫣😵💫)
