Human Rights

Welcome back to our newsletter series focusing on human rights, where we aim to shed light on important topics that impact the well-being and dignity of individuals, particularly within the context of women's health in South Africa.

The Intersection of Women's Rights and Human Rights

At the heart of our discussions lies the recognition that women's rights are human rights. Every individual has the inherent right to feel empowered, confident, and respected in their own bodies. This week, we are honored to host Dr. Stephen Jeffery for a talk titled "An Overview of Vaginal Laser Therapy."

Vaginal laser therapy can be a transformative treatment, not only improving physical health but also restoring confidence and dignity to women. By providing access to such therapies, we are advocating for the fundamental human right of every individual to feel good about themselves and their bodies.

Last Week's Talk: Insights from Clayton Hall on Informed Consent

In our previous webinar, Clayton Hall delivered a compelling presentation on "Informed Consent: The Hows & Whys & Dos & Don'ts." Hall highlighted the evolving landscape of informed consent, emphasizing its crucial role in patient care. He explored the legal frameworks, best practices, and common pitfalls surrounding informed consent, underscoring its significance in upholding patient autonomy and rights. As healthcare professionals, it is imperative that we prioritize informed consent to ensure ethical and patient-centered care. We are looking forward to hearing from him again soon!
