Women’s Health Conference 2023 is the first conference in Nepal looking broadly at women’s health. Disparities, discrimination and development challenges put so many women at extreme risk. In order to address this, we need to consider the multifaceted nature of women’s health conditions and explore trends in this sector for a well informed and evidence guided future course of action.
Hence, in the Leadership of Family Welfare Division, Department of Health Services, Ministry of Health and Population, organizations working in the sectors of Women’s Health have taken up this endeavor to organize a Women’s Health Conference in Nepal, seeking to explore trends in this area.
The Conference aims to promote and strengthen the interconnectedness of research, training, policy making, practice and advocacy evidence to expand women’s health agenda in Nepal. To that end, it will provide a platform for participants to discuss and disseminate evidence on what works and what doesn’t work and how successful programs can be expanded to reach different groups in society.
Specifically, the conference aims to:
The logo of the Conference comprises of a numbers of elements both unique to Nepal and to women’s wellbeing. First, the female figure with hands raised in the air depict women and freedom. The mountains follow shortly which appear to also be a part of a cloak attached to the female figure. The mountain signifies Nepal and the cloak of the strength of womanhood.
Likewise, the colors also have a distinct meaning here. The colors purple, green and white have been globally accepted as the colors of the women’s movement and International Women’s Day. Similarly, orange has been widely used to denote our stand against Violence Against Women. Combining these figures and colors, the logo of the Women’s Health Conference 2023 was born.
