The Women4Women team recently hosted a powerful community lecture on Parkinson’s Disease (PD) in rural communities around Hebron, bringing vital health education directly to women, where access to specialist care remains a daily challenge. Here’s why this matters: 🧠 Parkinson’s Disease affects ~10 million people worldwide, with women making up 40% of cases — yet they remain underrepresented in research. 🏥 Palestinian women face unique barriers: delayed diagnoses and limited specialist access. 💡 Knowledge is power — attendees left with practical tools to recognize symptoms, navigate the healthcare system, and support loved ones living with PD. When women support women, communities grow stronger. 💚 #Women4Women #ParkinsonsAwareness #WomensHealth #Palestine #CommunityHealth HealthEquity Empowerment
