Good health is necessary for women and children to thrive in all areas of their lives. So is the ability of women to make decisions about their health. As babies become children, children become adolescents, and adolescents become adults, their health needs change: Along with robust primary care, their circumstances might require access to better nutrition, family planning, or maternal care.
However, there has been a lack of investment in understanding the biology of conditions that disproportionately affect women and girls, such as HPV and reproductive health tract infections, as well as how to prevent and treat them. Similarly, most health R&D is done in high-income countries and intended for use in well-resourced, high-functioning health systems.
To unlock progress for women and for society, it is critical to ensure that women in low- and middle-income countries benefit from innovations in health technology, and that those innovations are designed and developed in a way that addresses their needs.

Melinda French Gates's Pivotal Ventures has committed $2 billion to women's health and economic power. The Bezos philanthropies have moved billions more. As the Buffett–Gates era winds down, this new class of megadonor is rewriting the rules of major giving. Here is what changes for nonprofits, and how to become the kind of organization this money finds.
