Founded in 2015 when four early career women, who initially met online, encountered an overwhelming response on social media on a range of issues. Five years after launching as a not-for-profit that was entirely powered by volunteers and had no income, Women in Global Health now has 41 Chapters in 36 countries, and expects to have 100 by 2023. With around 5,500 members and 70,000 supporters in over 90 countries, we are nurses, midwives, doctors, public health professionals, health policy makers, community health workers, researchers, pharmacists and private sector health workers.
