From the World Economic Forum:
The Global Alliance for Women’s Health calls for centring women’s voices in healthcare discussions to ensure their needs are accurately represented in global agendas.
Empowering women and adolescent girls with better access to healthcare and education can help break cycles of poverty and improve societal well-being.
Mainstreaming women’s health is necessary to address health disparities and ensure women receive equitable care across all conditions.
Despite the evidence that investing in women’s health positively impacts economic and social development, women’s health is extremely under-researched, under-funded and under-valued. To build a prosperous, inclusive and resilient world, this must change.
To rewrite the narrative around women’s health, support women and girls agency and accelerate investments in women’s health that benefit families and communities, the World Economic Forum’s Global Alliance for Women’s Health, supported by the Gates Foundation, is convening stakeholders globally to raise awareness of the challenges and opportunities in advancing women’s health outcomes.
