“Why are teenagers still getting pregnant?”.
This is the question that those of us who are involved with adolescents regularly put to ourselves. This VI th Seminar of the ESC offers us an excellent opportunity to exchange experiences, share our expertise and hopefully come to some conclusions.
There will be keynote lectures from experts as well as interactive workshops and the opportunity to listen to some adolescents who will speak about sexuality, contraception and pregnancy.
The second day of the Seminar is reserved for presentations on the Portuguese experience of adolescent pregnancies. We need your active participation for a successful and stimulating Seminar.
Opportunities will be provided to explore the charming university town of Coimbra. We look forward to meeting you there.
