sustainable wellbeing
A Global Crisis & Moral Imperative
"Communities, countries and ultimately the world are only as strong as the health of their women."
- Michelle Obama
The global women's health gap represents one of the most pressing challenges of our time. Women face systemic barriers to healthcare access, research, and treatment that impact not only their wellbeing but the prosperity of entire communities. This crisis demands urgent, coordinated action from governments, healthcare systems, and society at large.

The Staggering Reality
More Time in Poor Health
Women spend 25% more of their lives in poor health than men, facing unique health challenges throughout their lifespan.
Years Lost Annually
75 million years of life are lost annually by women to poor health or early death—a devastating toll on families and communities.
Years to Close The Gap
At the current rate of progress, it will take another 108 years to close the gender health gap. We cannot wait.
Global Opportunity
Closing the global women's health gap is a $1 trillion economic opportunity according to McKinsey research.
Our KPI
Halve the Loss
Our ambitious yet achievable goal is to halve the 75 million years of life lost due to poor health or early death by women every year. This measurable target drives every decision we make and every partnership we forge.
By focusing on this single, powerful metric, we create accountability and track real progress toward closing the gender health gap. This isn't just about statistics - it's about millions of women living longer, healthier, more fulfilling lives.
Scalable, Collaborative Action
Women's Health World is a world first: a new engagement model and movement dedicated to prolonging the quality of life of women everywhere. We address the fragmented investment and siloed innovation of today's status quo through an integrated, multi-faceted approach.
Compelling Content
A universe of content across 50+ languages. Articles, podcasts, long-form video, and interactive tools that educate and empower.
Community Hub
Membership to our Knowledge Network, connecting women with experts, peers, and support groups worldwide.
Engine for Change

Data & Insight

Our Change Model
We use the Trans-Theoretical Model (TTM) as a universal roadmap to changing behaviour. It consists of 5 stages born from human behaviour traits, focusing on decision making and need-states.
This evidence-based framework ensures our content and interventions meet women where they are in their health journey, providing the right information and engagement at the right time.
