RoySocMed is there no policy on this being 100% male / Manel on the poster advert? 2024? BAPRASvoice

Somiah Siddiq Women in Surgery WomenInSurgeryUK BAPRASvoice Absolutely. Shocking for the manel reason, but also the specific context highlights even more of an issue 🤯 Inexcusable

Emily Mills Women in Surgery WomenInSurgeryUK BAPRASvoice Profoundly concerning this issue persists as we roll well into 2024. UK equality law plays a pivotal role. Every organisation registered with the Charity Commission should have a comprehensive policy framework for 'visibility in diversity/inclusion', a basic foundational premise!

Surely we can do better than a massive majority male faculty at a conference primarily aimed at changing the way women look? I’m surprised this got past #TheRoyalSocietyOfMedicine - not to mention the endorsers of this course…
