Today, I am pleased to recognise ten years of
@WomenInGH, a decade that has redefined how leadership, inclusion, and accountability are understood and advanced across global health!
Since 2015, I have had the privilege of supporting and engaging with Dr
@RoopaDhatt and the founding leadership of Women in Global Health in advancing the conviction that health equity is inseparable from gender equity in decision-making. What began as a movement to redress systemic imbalance has evolved into a global framework for advocacy, linking over fifty national chapters, policy networks, and academic institutions to ensure that the women who deliver health also direct it.
Through my
@WellbeingAfrica Foundation, and in alignment with Women in Global Health Nigeria
@WGHNigeria, I have seen firsthand how gender-responsive governance enhances the delivery, financing, and accountability of care. Established in 2020 and hosted by
@PathfinderInt Nigeria Country Office, the
#WGH Nigerian chapter aligns global principles with national priorities, strengthening inclusive leadership pathways, linking professional sectors, and contributing data-driven insight to the movement for Universal Health Coverage
#UHC.
I commend Dr Roopa Dhatt, the global and national leadership teams, and every advocate whose dedication has shaped this first decade. I look forward to continuing our shared efforts in the years ahead to expand opportunity, strengthen inclusion, and uphold integrity across global health leadership.
