Special thanks to The Network: TUFH and our organizational partners: GHETS, GKP and USM
Members of The Network: TUFH Women and Health Taskforce have developed a series of training modules on topics ranging from violence against women and contraceptive practices to adolescent health and unwanted pregnancy/unsafe abortion. These women’s health modules make up the Women and Health Learning Package (WHLP), a free e-learning resource for use by educators, health providers and health sciences students (particularly medical and nursing students) in developing countries.
The Taskforce thanks all those who helped support production and distribution of the WHLP, including the authors and reviewers/editors, the organizations that helped made production and distribution of the WHLP possible: The Network: TUFH, GHETS, GKP and USM, and especially all the hardworking members of the Women and Health Taskforce.
