DESCRIPTION:Virtual/ Online Event with Professional Live Captions in Englis
 h\n\nThe talk will occur primarily in Spanish with live captions in Englis
 h provided by a professional interpreter. The interpreter will help during
  the Q and A session for folks who want to ask questions and do not speak 
 Spanish.\n\nPlease register on Eventbrite.\n\n\n	This workshop will be led 
 by Klau Kinky\, a founding member of the informal Barcelona-based collecti
 ve GynePunk. The workshop will introduce GynePunk's open-source gynaecolog
 ical kit for self-diagnosis. The kit was conceived in resistance to experi
 ences of humiliation\, discrimination and judgement in public gynaecology 
 clinics. GynePunk is a collaboration between people of differedifferent ba
 ckgrounds\, from nurses to engineers and transfeminists. Their activism pr
 omotes self-knowledge and learning about our own bodies. They explore pati
 ent-led diagnosis and treatment through their mobile lab.\n\nKlau Kinky wi
 ll share the circumstances that led to the development of the DIY gynaecol
 ogical tools for self-diagnosis\, including an open-source microscope\, a 
 3D printed speculum and a centrifuge. The event will address the political
  implications and limitations of the DIY kit\, such as how it could serve 
 persons without sufficient access to healthcare\, those without a fixed ho
 me\, refugees\, sex workers\, or those who fear discrimination in public h
 ealth services. The kit can also be contextualised within a wider developm
 ent\, bringing medical knowledge and treatment back into communities.\n\nT
 his event is part of the 4th Season of the Feminist and Accessible Publish
 ing and Communications Technologies Speaker and Workshop Series\, organize
 d by Dr. Alex Ketchum.\n\nOur series was made possible thanks to our spons
 ors: SSHRC\, the Institute for Gender\, Sexuality\, and Feminist Studies (
 IGSF)\, the DIGS Lab\, Milieux\, Initiative for Indigenous Futures\, MILA\

 n english. This event will NOT be recorded and NOT bemade available on our
