Welcome
I am Fartun Weli, MPH, MAPP – a Cultural Broker, Cultural Mediator, Health Literacy Advocate, and Community-Based Researcher.
With expertise in cultural mediation, health literacy, and community-based participatory research, I bridge cultural gaps and drive positive social change. I am passionate about women’s economic advancement, believing that women’s rights are family rights, family wellbeing is societal wellbeing, and societal wellbeing is a country’s strength and asset. In my work, I value collaboration with diverse stakeholders to address healthcare disparities, economic inequality, and social injustices, with a focus on empowering women and families.
Connect with me to access in-person trainings, discussions, and free resources to support the health and wellbeing of our communities.
