The Canadian Foundation for Women's Health (CFWH) aims to enhance and advance sexual and reproductive health for Canadian women. It serves as Canada's leading national foundation for women's sexual and reproductive health. The Foundation funds research, education, and international work in all aspects of women's health. This support helps save lives and improve women's health outcomes at every life stage.
The CFWH operates nationally across Canada with its headquarters in Ottawa, Ontario. The foundation champions funding for women's health research on a national scale. It also fosters support for international women's health programs, extending its impact beyond Canadian borders. This dual focus allows the foundation to address women's health issues both domestically and globally.
Program highlights include several grants and fellowships that support research in women's health. In 2024, the Foundation offered multiple funding opportunities including the CFWH General Research Grant and the Kitty Carr Fund. The Kitty Carr Fund specifically supports research aimed at preventing maternal mortality in Canada. The CFWH also partners with the Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada on programs like the Prevention of Maternal Morbidity and Mortality initiative.
