Team Story
A collaborative team driving community change
The group of staff at Women's Health Initiative uses sports and entertainments to address public health and social issues in the community.
This unified team photo reflects the collaborative spirit that drives the organisation's work across its four programs: Health and Social Empowerment, Health Research, Human Rights, and Gender Empowerment.
Founded in Bo City in 2010 and registered with Bo Council in 2018, Women Health Initiative relies on experienced staff and dedicated volunteers to carry out its public health and social empowerment activities.
The team pictured here represents the people responsible for planning, coordinating, and implementing the organisation's community-based interventions, from sexual and reproductive health education to gender-based violence support and human rights advocacy.
