When a tree falls, it’s not an end but the beginning of a transformation. Fungi, insects, and plants quickly repurpose the fallen wood, turning it into fertile soil from which new life emerges. This dynamic, interconnected system inspires the way we operate at Evoca. Read more about our approach in our most recent blog "Embracing Ecosystem Thinking" https://lnkd.in/dKKyVFiE

As we continue to mark Women’s History Month, we are honored to partner with Youterus Health to highlight the five key uterine conditions that significantly impact women's lives. These common conditions—uterine fibroids, endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID), and cervical cancer—play a considerable role in women's health. Despite their prevalence, there's a global gap in understanding, funding, and research, making early screening and awareness more critical than ever. We're taking action to equip women and girls with the resources they need to protect their quality of life and make informed decisions about their health. We invite you to visit and share our campaign page to explore these topics further. Let's keep the momentum going! Your engagement could make a significant difference in someone's life. 💜 https://lnkd.in/eG_qQyCU #UterineHealthAwareness #WomensHealth

"When calamity strikes—such as the war in Gaza or Ukraine—it captures the attention of governments and citizens everywhere. Amid these distractions, autocrats can act without fear of repercussion—we must take responsibility for ourselves and our leaders to do better." Naza writes. 🌍 🔗 Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/ewXK_VcA
