Global Women’s Health Initiative

Global Women’s Health Initiative was established as a space for interdisciplinary and intersectional collaboration on a wide variety of women’s health topics. Our goal is to evaluate women’s health by understanding the medical, legal, and activist implications for women’s health. In addition to this, we choose to use a transnational feminist approach by examining the imperial and colonial issues associated with global women’s health. In order to accomplish this, GWHI serves as a coalition and hosts a variety of events in addition to collaborating with other groups on campus and in the community. Each semester we pick a theme and host speakers, attend events and do service work related to that theme.
