International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics: African Perspectives At Women Deliver
Anne Kihara, president of the African Federation of Obstetrics and Gynecology (AFOG), highlights discussions on women’s health challenges in Africa at the recent 2019 Women Deliver conference, writing, “The theme of ‘WD2019’ spoke to power, progress, and change towards attainment of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development … We must provide social accountability and accelerated action towards gender equality in this generation, so that the promise of the SDGs can be actualized, and that means really understanding the scale of the challenge” (6/11).
