The Women's Mental Health Network (WMHN) hosts a webinar on women's mental health and COVID-19.
The webinar aims to explore some of what is known at present about the gendered impacts and implications of the COVID-19 pandemic one year on, with a particular focus on women in later life, women experiencing mental health difficulties, and pertinent social determinants of mental health.
Joining the event includes:
- Dr Clíona Ni Cheallaigh of COVID Women's Voices, Consultant in General Medicine and Infectious Diseases, and Clinical Lead for Inclusion Health Research at St James's Hospital
- Dr Mark Ward, Research Fellow at the Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing (TILDA) at Trinity College Dublin
- Fiona Coyle, Chief Executive Officer of Mental Health Reform.
It is hoped that this session spotlights for attendees the gender inequalities that have arisen and been exacerbated by the coronavirus pandemic and, most importantly, opportunities for social change, advocacy and action.
