As part of International Women’s Week, SVPRS has partnered with the Ban Righ Centre to host a lunchtime discussion featuring local speakers and experts exploring the often-unseen labour of care in academic life.

The Weight of Care: Beyond Balance in Academic Life opens a conversation about caregiving, boundaries, healthy relationships, and safety within the university community. Together, we’ll reflect on how care work is distributed, valued, and experienced and what it means to move beyond the idea of “balance” toward more sustainable and supportive approaches.

More details, including speakers, will be shared shortly.
