Franco West Africa
Founded:
Women in Global Health Francophone West Africa was formed after an initiative that profiled Francophone women in global health. We noticed that Francophone women, especially those from Africa, had less involvement in this movement for promoting women leadership in global health, despite most global health issues being present in Africa.
Women in Global Health Francophone West Africa is hosted by Equilibres & Populations.
