On Friday, October 8th 2021, Nigeria Health Watch hosted its maiden edition of the #HealthMeetsArt Gala to celebrate women in all their diversity. Themed ‘Celebrating Womanhood’, it brought together stakeholders from diverse sectors to increase awareness and provide a forum for discussion on how we can break down the structural barriers that prevent women and girls from attaining their full potential.
The gala was a hybrid event with the opportunity to share in the experience and view the art pieces online and in person. The art gala was organised with support from the National Gallery of Art and Female Artists Association of Nigeria (FEAAN).
