QWHA
Queen’s Women’s Health Advocacy (QWHA) is a knowledge-translation platform that advocates for women’s health across the lifespan.
Our vision is a future where students and community members have a strong understanding of women’s health principles, fostering open, destigmatizing communication and equitable healthcare outcomes.
By developing accessible, health sciences-based resources, we strive to empower individuals to understand their own physiology and advocate for their health and wellness.
We integrate education, targeted fundraising, advocacy, and expert research and clinical insights to bridge knowledge gaps.
QWHA encourages all those who support our mission to access our resources.
