Join ASHM, in partnership with Cairns Sexual Health Service and True, for a lively discussion exploring how funding has supported Early Medical Abortion (EMA) in public services.
This interactive webinar will feature a short presentation and panel discussion unpacking the journey so far – from early implementation wins to the barriers and challenges encountered along the way. Hear firsthand insights from those leading this work and explore what’s next for EMA in the public health space.
A great opportunity to hear practical reflections, share ideas, and be part of the conversation shaping the future of EMA service delivery.
