As the Government’s ten-year strategy comes to a close, public debate on teenage pregnancy looks set to continue.

This event brings together policy experts, campaigners and feminist scholars to consider: is teenage pregnancy a problem, or is young women’s right to choose motherhood a present-day feminist cause?

Chair: Prof. Miriam David, Institute of Education

Speakers include: Prof. Simon Duncan (University of Bradford), Kate Bell (Head of Policy, Gingerbread), Dr. Lesley Hoggart (University of Greenwich), Dr. Ofra Koffman (Goldsmiths College)
