Investing in women who use drugs will be a cornerstone for building inclusive communities and societies. Happy International Women's day! #IWD2024 #investinwomen #inspireinclusion

Women Nest participated in the Africa region, formerly incarcerated women's virtual meeting last week. Together with other 6 countries, we highlighted the need for non- discrimitive policies and greater representation of formerly incarcerated women in key decisions making forums.

Yesterday, Women Nest bid farewell to a long-time member who succumbed to Tuberculosis (TB). We should not loose any woman who uses drugs to curable diseases like T. We call upon community TB tracing geared towards women who use drugs and follow-ups for screening and treatment.

Today we join the global campaign Support Don't Punish, calling on drug policies based on health and human rights. Women Nest calls for improvement of drug policies, services and respects of the human rights for women who use drugs. 🔒Less cage 💚 More Care. Dr.Catherine W. Mwangi(PhD)
