Tóm tắt

Hemen Maternal and Children's Specialty Medical Center (Hemen) was founded in 2008 by four female physicians to offer high-quality women's reproductive and children's healthcare services in Ethiopia. Hemen is one of the largest specialty women's healthcare providers in Addis Ababa. In 2021, Hemen employed about 150 permanent staff and served 95,000 patients. Hemen is a member of IFC's Women's Leadership in Private Health Global Working Group, an initiative within IFC's Global Health Platform. As part of Hemen's commitments to the Working Group, in 2021 IFC conducted a Corporate Gender and Inclusion Assessment and Action Plan to identify and address operational gaps influenced by gender dynamics.
