MISSION & OBJECTIVES
La Chaire McConnell-Université de Montréal en recherche-création sur la réappropriation de la maternité : libérer la parole et le corps des femmes Led by professors Marie-Marthe Cousineau, François-Joseph Lapointe and Vardit Ravitsky, the McConnell-UdeM Chair in Research-Creation on the Re-appropriation of Maternity is a project bringing together artists, researcher-creators, researchers and students who are interested in the contemporary issue of obstetric violence in a more general context of violence against women, as well as the re-appropriation of motherhood. Through artists’ residencies, exhibitions and interdisciplinary research-creation meetings, the Chair wishes to bring an original perspective to the medical and ethical issues related to reproduction and maternity, including the stages of procreation, pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding.
