Our impact

Wemos envisions a world where we can all be as healthy as possible. We advocate structural change to achieve global health justice. This requires working together across sectors and countries. We collaborate with allies worldwide, aligning our global interventions with advocacy work in countries. This way, we can ensure that our work contributes to change on national level.

On this page, you can read about our impact per thematic area, in which we explain how our work contributes to structural change for global health justice.

In 2023, Wemos and Akina Mama wa Afrika successfully undertook an important project: to ensure that countries would commit to publicly funded healthcare in the political declaration on universal health coverage (UHC).

Fair pricing of medicines on the Dutch political agenda

We got the subject of fair pricing of medicines on the Dutch political agenda through a public campaign, which included a medicine edition of the famous Monopoly game.

Creating inclusive sexual and reproductive health services

The Make Way programme promotes inclusive sexual and reproductive healthcare through the Intersectional Community Scorecard.

Addressing medical deserts in Europe

With the AHEAD project, we contributed to policymakers’ understanding of medical deserts in Europe. They increasingly acknowledge the urgency to address Europe’s health workforce crisis.
