Afnane Issa Mohamed
I am a young community leader committed to advancing women's health and fostering connection across generations. As co-founder of Habo Nala Tali, a non-profit that brings together women from minority communities of all ages to build networks and mutual support, I have helped deliver four successful events. I also co-authored a research article on sex bias in endocrinology research, focusing on hormonal biomarkers for PCOS. As an Ambassador with the GLOCAL Foundation of Canada, I represent youth voices and support outreach. Active in university clubs, I am dedicated to community service and to creating equitable spaces for women.

By addressing gaps in women's health information, it empowers participants to make informed decisions, adopt healthier habits, and build supportive networks, ultimately improving their wellbeing and quality of life.
