IPOV Dissemination Activities

This section brings together the project’s main dissemination activities, understood in line with Horizon MSCA as the processes that make IPOV’s results visible, understandable and useful for academic, professional and institutional audiences.

These actions ensure that the knowledge generated through international exchanges, research activities and collaborative work reaches those who can apply it, strengthens scientific dialogue, and supports evidence-informed practices in maternity care and related fields. 

Dissemination activities in the IPOV – Respectful Care project include all actions aimed at sharing its scientific, methodological and technical results with those who can reuse them: healthcare professionals, training teams, policymakers, researchers and social organisations. It is not only about giving visibility to the project, but about making data, tools, guidelines and materials available so they can be adapted and applied in different contexts to prevent obstetric violence and promote respectful care.

This section will be especially relevant during the second phase of the project (2026–2027), when the publication of concrete results and outputs will intensify. Here you will find key news, events and milestones of IPOV, but please remember that the platform also offers texts, resources, videos and tools that further develop and deepen each of these advances.
