We aim to increase the reproductive health and overall well-being of women and girls, and decrease malnutrition in babies and young children.

Roots of Health empowers women and girls to secure their right to health and freedom from violence, and to support and protect the health and well-being of their children.

Our activities are guided by the international human rights framework, which includes a core belief that health is a human right, and are carried out using a community-based approach.
