Caring for the full reproductive lifecycle
Our maternal & child health arm follows women through every stage of reproductive care — from prenatal and postnatal support to the prevention of cervical cancer, the disease that takes more Ghanaian women’s lives than it ever should. We work with community health workers and evidence-based interventions to reach women in rural and underserved areas first.
Why it matters in Ghana
Cervical cancer is largely preventable, yet rural women often live too far from tertiary care to be screened in time. The gap is not knowledge — it is access. By taking education, HPV awareness, and screening directly into communities, we close the distance between prevention and the women who need it.
How we deliver
- Community health workers trained to deliver education and screening locally
- Partnerships with schools, churches, and community organisations
- Visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA) and clear referral pathways for women with abnormal findings
- Free at the point of care, always
This arm anchors our flagship 2026 rural cervical cancer screening programme and forms the basis of an active international research collaboration.
