Data is often something we feel distant from, but in reality, it is data that represents us. During this module, we will understand how important data is in making our voices heard, raising awareness of our struggles, and supporting our projects. 

We will therefore address the importance of data, both for us as individuals and as a society. We will see that data is important in how it represents us, but we are also important in building inclusive and respectful databases. We will therefore understand that data is not neutral, just like us, and that the way it is constructed and presented changes the message it conveys.

SRHR stands for ‘Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights’ and refers to the whole of human rights relating to sexuality and reproduction, guaranteeing people the freedom to make their own decisions about their bodies and their sexual and reproductive health.

In this section, we will therefore look at everything that includes access to information, education, health services, contraception, prevention and the freedom to live a safe and satisfying sexual and reproductive life.

Migration brings with it many challenges: separation from home and family, language difficulties, adapting to new cultures and systems, and often experiences of discrimination or loneliness. All these factors can have a profound impact on emotional and psychological well-being.

In this module, we will share stories of women supported by Fondazione Pangea and talk about mental health without taboos, sharing information and tools to support migrant women in the best possible way and discover the resources available in the area. The aim is to strengthen personal wellbeing, enhance resilience and encourage mutual support among women.

Obviously, this course does not make you a psychologist or social worker if you do not already have specific skills, but it certainly offers you a space to grow.
