Dr. Agomoni Ganguli-Mitra: Abortion Through the Lens of Structural and Epistemic Injustice


    Public lecture, June 30, 2026, 18:00-19:30 CEST

    Invitation

    The network “Bioethics and Structural Injustice” is excited to welcome Dr. Agomoni Ganguli-Mitra for a public lecture.

    Abstract

    As abortion once again becomes a target for populist politics and legal restrictions, it is worth asking: what now? Using insights from Black and transnational feminists, I examine potential avenues for academic discourse and activism in our way to more just abortion access and care.

    Details & Registration

    The talk, followed by a discussion, will take place online on June 30, 2026, from 18:00 to 19:30 CEST.
