When Women Thrive,
We All Do
We promote optimal health and flourishing for women throughout every stage of life.
The Problem
Women's health is hanging in the balance.
Amidst high-level foreign policy negotiations, the health of women is often set aside in favor of polarizing policy debates. Women, especially the most vulnerable, become collateral damage.
Foreign assistance and global funding often fails to emphasize the overall health of the person, instead focusing on siloed priorities or the most divisive policies. For too many women, this causes more harm than good.
No longer.
