ABOUT THE ORGANISATION
Womanhood Initiative is a nonprofit organisation working to improve knowledge about girls’ and women’s health. We want more people to understand the body, know their options and access useful information.
OUR PURPOSE
Throughout life, girls and women may have questions about menstruation, hormones, contraception, illness, health and different life stages. What we know shapes how we understand our experiences and the questions we can ask.
We create free educational platforms and digital tools to help girls, women and those around them understand the body. Our aim is to make information easier to find, understand and use.
WHAT SETS US APART
At Womanhood Initiative, you can explore educational platforms and digital tools without paying or creating an account. Free access, clear language and privacy shape the way we develop our resources.
We want to reduce inequalities so that income, background and circumstances have less influence on the knowledge available to you.

We believe public institutions should take clear, lasting responsibility for making education about girls’ and women’s health a natural part of schools and working life.
Until this knowledge reaches everyone in a systematic and accessible way, Womanhood Initiative will continue to provide free educational platforms and digital tools. We want more people to understand their bodies, ask questions and make informed choices.
For ourselves and those who come after us.
