This year, International Women’s Day 2025 carries the powerful theme of “Accelerate Action.”
At Mildmay Hospital, we wholeheartedly embrace this call to speed up progress toward gender equality, and we recognise the need for decisive, urgent action to address the barriers women face in every aspect of their lives.
From our history of training pioneering nurses, our groundbreaking work in HIV/AIDS care, and our work to educate and empower adolescents and women in East Africa, Mildmay has always been committed to supporting women in healthcare and beyond. Today, we continue this tradition by empowering women, amplifying their voices, and promoting inclusion and diversity in all aspects of our work.
In line with this year’s global call to accelerate action, we are committed to:
Empowering women in leadership roles across healthcare.
Supporting the professional development of women at all levels, including nurses, doctors, and support staff.
Challenging stereotypes and promoting gender equality in everything we do.
We also recognise the importance of supporting women-focused initiatives and the groups working tirelessly to advance women’s rights and opportunities worldwide. In solidarity with these efforts, we encourage everyone to join us in supporting the supporters - whether it’s through donations or other forms of action that help drive change.
Let’s all work together to accelerate the pace of progress for women and ensure a future where gender equality is not a distant goal but a reality.
