ASSET
ASSET NIHR Global Health Research Unit on Health System Strengthening in Sub-Saharan Africa brings together surgeons, obstetricians, midwives, psychiatrists, public health dentists, palliative care and general healthcare specialists to work with social scientists, health economists, information technologists and implementation scientists. We are looking for practical ways, through health system strengthening interventions, to improve the coverage and quality of care. We are working across three care platforms – surgical care, maternal care and integrated primary healthcare for chronic diseases – in four SSA countries (Ethiopia, South Africa, Sierra Leone, Zimbabwe). As part of this we are piloting a health systems strengthening intervention to improve detection, referral and care for pregnant women with depression, anxiety and exposure to domestic violence in Cape Town, South Africa.

Women’s Wellness Institute (WWI) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing the mental, emotional, and psychosocial well-being of women through education, empowerment, and capacity building. Our mission is to equip women and the professionals who serve them with the knowledge, skills, and tools needed to promote resilience, healing, and lifelong wellness.

WWI provides gender-responsive, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive training, certification programs, wellness circles, and workforce development initiatives that strengthen mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) services across communities. Our work focuses on building the capacity of professionals in health (SRHR, maternal/child, etc.), social services, education, human resources, emergency response, and community development while also supporting women navigating workplace stress, caregiving responsibilities, trauma, and life transitions.

We serve women across diverse backgrounds, including underserved and vulnerable populations, and collaborate with government agencies, nonprofits, academic institutions, and community organizations to advance equitable access to mental health and wellness resources locally and globally.
