8. Bridging the Gap for HER Health
Listen now
Description
Have you ever wondered how health statistics are taken in the most rural parts of the world? Journal articles discuss how hundreds of thousands of women are diagnosed with and dying from cervical cancer, but just how accurate are these statistics? In this episode, Marissa Fayer and I chat about women's health in low and middle income countries, specifically cervical cancer statistics and the important work she does in the medtech and philanthropy sectors. We talk about Marissa's background and how HerHealthEQ was founded (in a bar!). HerHealthEQ is a nonprofit that aims to improve women's health outcomes by providing medical equipment to developing regions around the world. Marissa explains how HerHealthEQ carefully selects their partners and distributes medical equipment to regions in need while emphasizing the importance of providing not just equipment but also service contracts, training, and installation. As HerHealthEQ grows and continues to serve women and girls worldwide, we realize just how important partnerships are in creating impact at scale.
