Paulien Bom groeide op in een antroposofisch gezin: haar ouders leefden vanuit de wereldbeschouwing van Rudolf Steiner, de grondlegger van de antroposofie. In haar nieuwe boek ‘De Stalenburg’ maakt ze de balans op van een idealistische jeugd. Hoe is het om op te groeien met idealen? En hoe voorkom je als ouder dat het ideaal het wint van het kind?  

Reproductive justice is a Black feminist concept that has been gaining traction in both activism and research around the world, but in the Netherlands the concept is not well known. Currently, we are faced with multiple forms of reproductive injustice: the criminalization of abortion, enhanced maternal and neonatal mortality rates for people of colour, and accumulating research addressing the structural nature of obstetric violence and racism. The investments in reproduction are uneven, when it comes to different groups of people across the world, especially in (post)colonial contexts. All these injustices with relation to reproduction, is what the term reproductive justice aims to address, analyse, and fight. During this evening, a rich panel of academics and midwives introduce and discuss the concept of reproductive justice, what is at stake and what is to be learned.
