To honour this year’s International Domestic Workers Day (16th June), we are delighted to work with Uplifters to launch their new short course, “Your Health as a Woman.”

This free course was designed specifically for MDWs with aims of providing them with essential knowledge about their health and well-being.

The course, Your Health as a Woman, covers various aspects of a woman’s health including sexual and reproductive health, cancer awareness, access to healthcare services and building a supportive network.

Key Objectives of this course include:

1. Understand sexual and reproductive health

2. Learn about pregnancy and understand their rights as a pregnant domestic worker in Hong Kong

3. Learn about the different cancers that affect women (cervical, breast, and ovarian)

4. Build a supportive network and overcome cultural barriers

MDWs can enrol on Uplifters Facebook Messenger by clicking on Send Message on their Facebook page Online Courses by Uplifters.
