Agreed! People don’t live their lives in isolation. So why do we break healthcare into pieces?
Health doesn’t start at the clinic door. It starts in homes, schools, streets, and movements.

Feminist actors are already delivering care with information, safety, dignity, and community. It’s time our systems caught up. We need healthcare that’s connected, not broken. Feminist, not clinical-only. Health + social + justice.

Because health isn’t just a prescription. It’s a whole life.

Happening today! Our Advocacy & Communications Director Ije-Oma Richa joins a panel to discuss
What Feminist Funding
Practice Makes Possible in Global Health, taking place today, April 22 at 10am ET/ 3pm BST. In our current reality of shrinking aid budgets, stalled progress in Maternal and Newborn Health,
and increasing pressure to “do more with less”, this session will focus on how funding decisions
are made — whose knowledge informs them, how priorities are defined, and how participatory
processes can meaningfully shape funding practices over time.
