Women in Global Health
Elevating Women's Leadership to Transform Public Health Narratives and Systems
This solution will counter harmful narratives and workplace bias by uplifting women as essential health leaders addressing systemic burnout and workforce loss.
As the public health workforce faces rising burnout and bias, women - who sustain and lead health systems - remain undervalued and pushed out. Women in Global Health (WGH)'s project, Elevating Women's Leadership in Public Health Narratives and Systems, reframes narratives and confronts workplace discrimination by elevating women as essential health leaders through storytelling, leadership development, and ally engagement. Implemented through WGH chapters, this approach strengthens leadership pipelines, improves retention, and drives sustainable systems change.
