ACTIVATING SDG 5: Bridging the Gap between Women’s Health and Women’s Economic Empowerment.

​SocialGood Lagos UNGA Activation: Bridging the Gap Between Women’s Health and Economic Empowerment

​Join us for a transformative event during the 79th United Nations General Assembly as we activate Sustainable Development Goal 5 (SDG 5), focused on advancing gender equality by bridging the critical gap between women's health and economic empowerment.

​At this pivotal moment in history, as global leaders unite under the theme "Leaving no one behind," our spotlight is on Nigeria's urgent need to address the health and economic challenges faced by women across all demographics. With the support of WRTHY, SocialGood Lagos is convening a dynamic hybrid event that explores how improving access to healthcare for women can unlock economic power, benefiting not only women but their families, communities, and economies.

​This engaging event will feature:

• ​Goodwill messages from key figures: Including a special address from the Lagos SDGs office

• ​Insightful presentations: Including a session on the Women’s Economic Empowerment (WEE) policy

• ​Intergenerational roundtable discussion: Where women of different generations and backgrounds share stories, highlight personal challenges, and propose solutions.

• ​Fireside Chat: Focused on the critical role of healthcare access in women's economic empowerment.

​Why Attend? Be part of a powerful conversation on how health innovation, early detection of health conditions, and access to reproductive care can shape women’s lives, enabling them to take control of their future. Discover what steps we must take to ensure women can lead healthier, more productive lives and contribute fully to society.
