endometriosis.bgThe Endometriosis Foundation raises awareness and supports women affected by endometriosis and other reproductive health conditions. It works to improve quality of life through education, advocacy, and access to care. The foundation shares clear information, builds supportive communities, partners with medical professionals and institutions, and advocates for patient rights. Its vision is a society of mutual support where women’s health is a priority.
About the Project
EndoTalks – podcast and digital campaign for women’s health, rights, and awareness
This project is motivated by the low awareness of endometriosis, a condition that affects around 1 in 9 women of reproductive age, including about 200,000 in Bulgaria. Despite its scale, endometriosis often remains overlooked, which leads to long diagnostic delays and serious health and social consequences. The project responds with a communication campaign that promotes equality, human dignity and women’s rights. Endometriosis Foundation produces educational short videos and podcasts with medical specialists, nutritionists, psychologists and patients. These activities raise public awareness, decrease stigma and misinformation and strengthen the visibility of the organisation working on this important issue.
