How We Improve Women’s Health
Women’s Health in the South East (WHISE) is a proudly feminist not-for-profit womens health promotion agency. We are committed to the creation of an inclusive, safe, healthy and thriving community in our region.
We are leaders in:
- Sexual and reproductive health
- Prevention of violence against women
- Gender and mental wellbeing
- Gender Equity
The majority of our health promotion work sits in primary prevention. Our work is about translating knowledgebase into action for positive social change.
We promote equality and advocate for attitudinal, societal and system change that address structural disadvantage.
We build capacity in the health promotion sector to apply an intersectional gendered lens to all health promotion work.
Workforce Development
To ensure that all women in our region are safe, healthy and thriving, WHISE provides a range of support to our partners to develop our workforce, its capacity and capability around our priority areas.
