Join Women’s Agenda and a huge number of expert guests for The Women’s Health Project.
This is a special podcast series examining how and where women’s health has been sidelined and overlooked, while also exploring the innovation, advocacy and research that’s being done to significantly change the story.
It’s a massive project. But it’s one we hope to make a solid start on during this series, to understand where and how women’s health has been dismissed, and ensure different areas like -- heart disease, mental health, reproductive health, physical health -- get a gendered spotlight to help improve outcomes for all of us. And to position women’s health as pivotal to the pandemic recovery.
This series is independently created by Women’s Agenda and Agenda Media, and made possible thanks to the support of Organon, the recently launched pharmaceutical company dedicated to a better and healthier every day for every woman.
Let’s change the story. Join us on the Women’s Health Project.

Why Project Women's Health?
Let's do this! We're investigating women's health on this podcast, including how it's been sidelined, overlooked and seen women's pain and health risks ignored for so long. It's a big project with a lot to cover. But we're determined to make a start. To get women's health on the agenda, and to look at some promising areas where improvements and investments are being made. We'll be speaking to a wide range of medical experts for this series, and building on our ten years of research, interviews and journalism done on Women's Agenda.
This podcast is produced by Agenda Media, the 100% female-owned and run publisher of Women's Agenda. It's editorially independent, but made possible thanks to Organon, the recently launched female pharmaceutical company.
