Millennium Fellowship Project: Nomadic Women Rising
Nomadic Women Rising is a community-centered initiative that amplifies the voices and reproductive health needs of women in nomadic communities. The project creates safe, culturally respectful spaces where women can learn, share experiences and access essential reproductive health information that is often difficult to obtain due to mobility and geographic isolation. By engaging directly with communities and collaborating with county governments and NGOs, the initiative works to strengthen trust, improve access to services and champion long-term, sustainable solutions that support the dignity and wellbeing of nomadic women.
