WGH DC mourns the loss of our founder & friend Nicole Schiegg, who passed away Saturday after a valiant battle with cancer. She was a champion of women’s empowerment & equitable #globalhealth. We will advance her legacy by continuing to support women leaders around the globe.

Crossing a milestone: 10 Years of #CollectiveAction @womeninGH .

Grateful to the thousands of women and allies that believed that doing things differently in #globalhealth was possible & joined the movement to challenge power & privilege.

While the challenges of dependent and elder caregiving are increasingly recognized, the complex dynamics of these experiences remain poorly understood.

Facilitated by Brooke Cutler, join this insightful discussion with Alison Varco, Ms. @Evelyne_Opondo, @PaurviBhatt, and Dr. @mhealthnurse as they delve into the value caregiving adds, the leadership skills it lends to the workplace, and strategies to advocate for novel systems and policies that reflect the current workforce profile.
