International Gynaecological Awareness Day on 10 September

Celebrate the International Gynaecological Awareness Day in your corner of the globe by organising an event or simply starting a conversation. 

In 2015, Kath launched the Undies for Better Understanding campaign (UBU) on Facebook, as a part of the IGAD celebrations. The purpose was to provide people with a very visual tool to start conversations.

Kath hosted workshops where women gathered to decorate cardboard undies. While they were decorating, they were sharing their gynaecological and sexual health stories. Through the sharing came healing and understanding.
The undies were then put up in shop windows, on fridges in staff rooms, in foyers and at reception areas in businesses to create awareness and start the conversation.
Are you a WOMEN’s LEADER or an ASPIRING WOMEN’S LEADER or simply a CONCERNED COMMUNITY MEMBER willing to host a workshop and get the women who attend to commit to distributing their completed works of art into the community on the week of 10 September (Women’s Health Week) as a means of showing solidarity with the millions of women who suffer in silence? If yes, register now and make a difference!

Join Kath Mazzella on 10 September and help save lives and reduce women’s suffering in silence.
