Summary

Description

This year, our hope is to better Educate, Energize, Embrace and Empower the women around us. We laugh with them, we go to them for advice – we all know women who inspire us, who better the lives of others, and who are committed to a Healthy Lifestyle. #CultivatingWellness

The Conference is aiming to address issues regarding the health and well-being of women. Out of everything that makes a woman a woman, the most important is her physiology. The unique gifts associated with being a woman, regardless of whether they are socialized or biological, include being strong enough to bear children, stable enough to balance a dozen roles at once, and nurturing enough to build a strong, healthy community.

Women’s Health Conference is organized by ANNISAA Organization of Canada, a Muslim women’s empowerment organization providing a significant benefit to the Muslim community by empowering Muslim women and girls to effectively address the challenges of integration and self-empowerment through educational enrichment, healthy living, and social development, aiming to serve women of all faiths, race, origins, ethnicities, and abilities.

Women’s health is affected by many factors, such as the economy, environment, society, culture, religion, and biology. For this reason, ANNISAA Organization of Canada decided to hold an Annual Conference on Women’s Health. The aim of this conference is to provide up-to-date information on different aspects of women’s health, including healthy ageing, non-communicable and communicable diseases, psycho-social aspects, health promotion, reproductive health, and nutrition. Finally, the attending specialists and experts will provide recommendations to be put into practice which reinforced the recommendations for additional clinical preventive services for women, mobilizing health professionals within practice, education, and research to address the national health goals, encouraging the adoption of ongoing evidence-based prevention guidelines, gender-sensitive, and culturally appropriate, persuading all stakeholders to harmonize their endeavours on women’s health, changing the viewpoint to the women as a workforce alliance as with like men, along with considering the major role of women as the basis of the family, and improving the coverage, accessibility, and quality of women-oriented health services.
