Global Organization of People of Indian Origin (GOPIO) Bahrain, in collaboration with American Mission Hospital, hosted a transformative event titled “Breaking Barriers - Nurturing bodies, and Inspiring souls” on 8 December at the King Hamad American Mission Hospital in A’Ali, to discuss critical issues in gynaecology and psychology.

Renowned Dr. Bhanu Vasudevan, from American Mission Hospital, led discussions on gynaecology. A panel discussion on psychological factors such as depression, trauma, harassment, and stress were supported by experts Mrs Rekha Utham, Ms. Anne-Laura Renard and Ms. Svetlana Prodanova and Dr. Bhanu Vasudevan.

The highly interactive event facilitated engagement between panelists and attendees, providing an enriching learning experience. VMB Bros sponsored giveaways for the participants, further reinforcing the message of self-care and wellbeing.

Groundbreaking event

“We are thrilled to partner with GOPIO to host this groundbreaking event,” said the spokesperson for American Mission Hospital.

“The discussions today are of great importance, as they address issues that are often swept under the rug due to societal norms or stigma. We believe that open dialogue can break barriers, lead to greater understanding, and inspire positive change.”

MC for the event was TM. Ritu Roy. GOPIO EXCOM extended warm wishes and thanks to all the volunteers and AMH staff and management for their valuable support and efforts to make this event successful.
