Women’s Health Innovation Blueprint

Regulation. Innovation. Access.

We are building a global blueprint to reduce the time it takes for women’s health innovations to move from evidence to approval, adoption and patient access.

Regulation

Convening regulators, policymakers, clinicians, researchers and industry around faster, better-aligned routes for innovations that could change the landscape of conditions affecting women.

Innovation

Focusing attention on the practical barriers that slow women’s health breakthroughs: evidence generation, financing, regulatory dialogue and implementation pathways.

Access

Making sure faster pathways lead to real-world uptake, so women are not left waiting years for tools, diagnostics and treatments that could improve care.

The Dove Foundation for Global Change is leading this work, drawing on its wider Connections for Global Change approach to bring public institutions, regulators, clinical leaders, industry and civil society into the pathway from policy commitment to implementation.
