Giving Women, in collaboration with World Bicycle Relief and ROKPA INTERNATIONAL, is hosting a panel conversation and interactive experience exploring how mobility poverty remains a root cause of gender inequity in healthcare access.
In many underserved communities, distance can mean the difference between care and hardship. While women are often the primary health managers for their families, geographic isolation and lack of transportation continue to prevent millions from accessing essential and life-saving healthcare services.
This event will explore how practical and scalable solutions — from the Buffalo Bicycle to mobile healthcare clinics — can help bridge the mobility access gap and transform healthcare delivery in remote regions. By connecting on-the-ground experience with philanthropy and systems thinking, we aim to foster collaboration and inspire concrete action toward more inclusive and accessible healthcare solutions.
The Panel
- Alisha Myers, Executive Director of Impact & Learning – World Bicycle Relief (WBR)
Exploring how purpose-designed bicycles empower community health workers to reach more patients, reduce travel time, and ensure the “last mile” is no longer out of reach. - Zoe Bozzolan-Kenworthy, CEO – ROKPA INTERNATIONAL
Highlighting its mobile clinic model, bringing essential healthcare services directly to remote and underserved communities where access to medical care remains limited.
Moderated by Giving Women’s co-lead for Zurich, Alina Bulugioiu.
