| An initiative
of iCSi International Patient Leader Community, the
AIA is the result of the tremendous efforts by Rita
Sembuya of JOYCE Fertility, who met with fertility organisations
in Uganda, Kenya, Zimbabwe and Israel to realise the
vision of a supportive alliance for women suffering
from inferrtility.
So far the efforts of JOYCE Fertility and the AIA has
resulted in the first African scientific conference
on endometriosis in March 2006 to bring scientists together
to share findings and challenges on Endometriosis.
The AIA has developed its first awareness brochure
and the International Consumer Support for Infertility
(iCSi) has supported this educational program with an
educational grant to print 2000 brochures.
The AIA hopes that women in Africa will become inspired
by its efforts to promote education and awareness in
this region, and they welcome women with endometriosis
and/or infertility to be part of this important initiative.
