Hope in Hard Places: Gender Equality, Digital Health, and Resilience

Dr. Nojus Saad, physician, social entrepreneur, digital health advisor, and founder of Youth for Women Foundation, grew up in northern Iraq under the shadow of the 2003 U.S. invasion. At just 16, he founded an organization to drive gender equality and digital health inclusion, choosing activism and hope over despair.

He talks about his journey into medicine, the power of digital technology, and how men can make a difference in the movement toward gender equality. His story is a testament to the power of resilience and determination toward dignity and human rights and the transformation of oppressive norms.
