Pan African Women in Health (PAWH) 2024,

Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa

  • About the event

    Established in 2018 by African women working in the health and development sector, The Pan African Women in Health (PAWH) is an Africa based organization that brings together leaders passionate about a common goal: increasing and improving women’s opportunities and grooming the next generation of female African health leaders and actors.

    At PAWH, we believe that when women come together as change agents, it becomes impossible for them to go unrecognized. We believe in female empowerment by connecting those that have a voice to those who aspire to have one.

    That’s why PAWH is a platform for discussions and collaborations, a platform for education & training facilitation, a platform that garners support and commitment from diverse stakeholders. PAWH aims to advance the women’s agenda in this sector by providing access to role models as well as training opportunities for aspiring young women; and by doing so, grooming the next generation of African female health leaders.

We would like to invite all PAWH members, partners and supporters to join this important gathering to celebrate, debate, learn and map the way forward to further support and elevate women health professionals on the continent and in diaspora.  Our last in person conference was attended by 100 participants, we are aiming to  host around 250 participants from Africa and African Diaspora.
