AWAKE Global: Empowering Women in Global Health Research Across Regions

The AWAKE initiative is a regional movement under The Global Health Network aimed at amplifying the voices of women in global health research through tailored programs across Africa, Asia, and Latin America. It fosters mentorship, capacity building, and policy advocacy to bridge gender gaps and empower women at all career stages.

Each regional arm, AWAKE Africa, AWAKE Asia, and AWAKE Latin America, responds to unique local needs while advancing the shared vision of a more inclusive global health research landscape. From webinars and mentorships to upcoming leadership projects and advocacy campaigns, AWAKE is creating meaningful opportunities for women researchers to lead, connect, and thrive. Whether you're a student, a researcher, a policymaker, or an ally, there’s a place for you in this growing network of changemakers.
