The Series
Held every two years, the Self-Care Learning and Discovery Series (SCLADS) is a highly interactive virtual forum that invites the self-care community to share new knowledge, elevate findings and solutions, and forge connections across issues and geographies.
The series is open to all interested self-care stakeholders, including advocates, health providers, government representatives, implementers, journalists, community leaders, academia, product developers, feminists, youth champions, and more.
There is no fee to participate.
