Healthcare is not a privilege, it is a basic human right that must be upheld for everyone, including women and persons with disabilities. Yet, despite this principle, many still face significant barriers when trying to access the care they need. These challenges are not accidental; they are a result of unfair societal attitudes and health systems that continue to exclude and marginalise . If we are to achieve gender equality, we must take action to change this. We must ensure that women and persons with disabilities have equal access to quality, appropriate healthcare. Only when everyone’s health rights are respected and protected can we build a truly just and inclusive society.

Participants will understand the value of translating research and identify the commercial potential of their work.

The Frontiers Planet Prize (FPP) honors breakthroughs in sustainability science that help humanity stay within Earth's boundaries. It encourages international competition and collaboration to speed up scientific discovery for a healthier planet.
By promoting transformative solutions, the prize emphasizes the urgent need for global public and private investment in sustainability science. It amplifies science's voice in policy and commercial decisions to turn
research into impact.
Each year, winning scientists advance their work by participating in global conferences and regional dialogues, where they share their expertise to shape sustainable futures.
In South Africa, ASSAf is the official National Representative Body (NRB), coordinating nominations and ensuring they meet the Frontiers Planet Prize criteria.
