Strategic Partnerships And Policy Advocacy With Amy Flood, Executive Director, Women’s Health Collective Canada

The Discovery Pod

Women’s health in Canada is critically underfunded—only 7% of national health research dollars are dedicated to it, and just 2.5% when oncology is excluded. Amy Flood, Executive Director of Women’s Health Collective Canada, joins the conversation to share how her organization is tackling this disparity through strategic partnerships, policy advocacy, and public education. From pushing for a national health care strategy for women to advance gender-based research standards, Amy highlights the urgent need for systemic change. She sheds light on the staggering $3 to $3.5 billion annual cost of unmanaged menopause symptoms, the power of making health inequities personal, and the role of evidence-based information in combating misinformation. With a growing global focus on women’s health, Amy calls for collaboration across sectors to position Canada as a leader in women’s health innovation.
