All RANZCOG Fellows, Trainees, interested clinicians researchers and educators are welcome to attend, if you have an interest in teaching (undergraduate and postgraduate levels) or research. Our focus will be on engaging students, registrars and clinicians in teaching and high quality research, improving curriculum resources and department culture, and taking a leadership role in women’s health.

The workshop is our third hui to facilitate collaboration on studies in obstetrics, gynaecology and reproductive health. As we get closer to the workshop, we will seek input on topics to be included from our participants, particularly in relation to Session 4.
