Our Team

In a world, where the agenda for social change is usually set by the wealthiest donors and too often women’s and girls’ needs are ignored in favor of corporate strategies and stakeholders’ risk tolerance, centering women’s and girls’ voices is truly a radical idea. We need a paradigm shift and we need it now.

There is always a higher power telling women what to do. Never is there anyone that seeks to understand what women need for themselves. This alone made me change my course and become a change maker, an advocate for women and girl’s health and rights.

Too often, women are discouraged from saying—and seeking—what we want. Too often, the world responds with criticism when we do. At WRA, we support and celebrate those who advocate for themselves and others!

Women are born with power. Yet every step of the way, throughout their lives, people around them prevent them from exercising their power.  It is way past time to transform power structures that routinely silence the voices, ignore the preferences and under value the lives of women and girls.

At WRA, we demand a world that doesn’t yet exist, and believe this world can only be built through local action and global solidarity.

We believe that women can, and should, lead the world. We believe women and girls are more than what they are told. That they should own their bodies, health, lives, and the future of their communities.

In a world where women are often underestimated, WRA encourages and empowers young girls and women to raise their voices and share their stories to demand meaningful change. We all have the power to use our voice to effect change. How will you use your power?

Political, social, and cultural pressures are constantly undermining women’s autonomy. We live in a world that tells women to be quiet, to sit down, say nothing. A world in which women’s experiences are “women’s issues.” At WRA we know that women, girls, and gender diverse people are inherently powerful, and we work with them to make sure their stories are sought out, heard, and taken seriously.

We trust women to know best what they need and want and wake up daily, driven to fight for a better, healthier world for women and girls.

Bridging the gender data gap requires that the voices of women and gender-diverse people are sought, heard, and activated. Actionable insights require measurable impact to close-the-loop. At every step, data is the key.

An empowered woman is a woman that understands and demands her fundamental human rights. Each time she stands up, she stands up for all women, further empowering them by her actions, like a candle whose flame lights other candles. This is the agency we strive to achieve.

My drive and ministry are to enhance the power, voices and potential of the ‘women’s health workforce’ to achieve excellence and to make their voices, and those of all women and girls, heard in communities and globally.

Decisions concerning women must be made by women. Any deviation from that undermines the ethical principle of autonomy. If women and girls succeed, the entire world will succeed.

Women have the power to remake the world, and we at WRA are aiming to create that realization. We see a future where women do not just accept, but rather have the courage to challenge, to change the dynamics, to reshape the narrative, and to ensure that their voices are heard and not ignored.

When women, girls, and gender diverse people are silenced, we miss the opportunity to design a society that serves us all. WRA believes that when women and girls are well, so are their families, communities, and countries. This change has to come from the grassroots, positioning the power of people into the design of the systems, services and structures that create our futures.

Every person and family has the right to high-quality, patient-centered, respectful, rights-based, and evidence-informed healthcare. Yet, we are far from this reality and we are moving in the wrong direction. We need an urgent and radical transformation to the systems deepening these inequalities. We need Stories. Solidarity. Action. Accountability.  

To leverage the full power of campaigns, natural language processing can optimize data analysis and transform insights into action towards a healthy world with the help of artificial intelligence.

Once empowered a woman to have her own voice, to be economically independent, be balanced and respected, she could do anything. Anyone could be a changemaker – we only should ensure that we are free from system barriers, prejudice and aggression, so that everyone could find their purpose, a place in life and thrive. It’s time for women to lead the world’s agenda and will give my best to my daughters to live in a gender equal reality.

Social norms are one of the major causes that hinder personal growth and success for women and girls. Norms are supposed to keep people safe, yet I don’t know a single woman that can state she absolutely feels free in expressing herself. It’s time to change norms that aren’t working and show our societies that the world can be shaped better if women are in power.

There is immense power in owning your story, your words, your needs – refusing to let someone else tell your story. Women and gender-diverse people are the greatets agents of their own change, and when given the tools and platforms to succeed, they’re unstoppable.
