Women’s health issues are often marginalised, overlooked, or stigmatised. Whether it’s menstrual health, reproductive health, mental health, or trauma recovery, many women face shame and silence about their struggles.
Break the Silence is a project which encourages women to speak out about their health challenges and share their experiences, emphasising that no one should feel isolated in their struggles.
By telling their stories, women can help others feel seen and heard. This creates a powerful ripple effect that fosters a community of support and understanding.
As part of this project, NWC E&T will held a story telling event Break the Silence – Women’s Stories of Health, Empowerment and Resilience on International Women’s Day, 8th March 2025.
The ‘Break the Silence’ project was supported by Medtronic.
