This year, FREO2 has initiated a three-year Gender Equity Strategy, with the aim to improve health outcomes for women and girls in low-resource settings and make advances towards the UN goal of achieving gender equality and empowering all women and girls. In this season of Take a Breath with FREO2, we’ll be speaking with three incredible women from across Africa, who are working in healthcare and advocacy spaces to enhance the lives of girls and women.
In today's episode of Take a Breath with FREO2, our host Jennifer Hansen sits down with Mercy Kafotokoza, Executive Director of Wandikweza, a locally-led organisation in Malawi, determined to improve access to health care through training and empowering local community health workers to be on the ground and available to improve the health and wellbeing of vulnerable communities.
