The annual RAPP event brings together academics, researchers, students, activists, practitioners, and policymakers for in-depth discussions about research concerning advocacy, policy, and practice within the field of sexualities and reproduction.

Following the successful 2019 RAPP event, co-hosted by the CSSR and the SRJC, entitled: Sexuality education, counter-normative sexualities, and confronting our own sexualities, this year we propose that the event focus on the topic of abortion.

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way that academics, researchers, students, activists, practitioners, and policymakers alike can engage with one another. Instead of hosting the in-person workshops that the RAPP event held last year, this year, the RAPP event will go digital. RAPP 2020 will consist of three online sessions running over three weeks and include panels, presentations, and breakout workshops. This online approach is beneficial as it helps to broaden the number of guest speakers and participants who can attend, which further helps to bridge the gap that the RAPP event seeks to address between researchers, practitioners, policymakers and advocates.

Participants will be required to register to attend the virtual event. When registering, please choose which breakout groups you would like to participate during event 1 and 2.
