My work concerns womens’ experiences of mistreatment during childbirth. I consider opening a platform for women and healthcare providers to share their stories. The goal of this project would be to raise public awareness about obstetric violence, but also to open conversation that would motivate changes in practice of obstetrics and gynecology within the western biomedical model.
At the same time I am aware that such conversation may cause negative emotional responses, such as anxiety and fear. I will be looking into research of “affect in archiving” to address this problem.
