Submission declined on 19 May 2024 by Jamiebuba (talk). This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

Women First Digital (WFD) is an international organization dedicated to advancing e-health initiatives in the realm of sexual and reproductive health. Utilizing digital technologies, WFD strives to disseminate comprehensible information and connect individuals with pertinent resources.
Established in 2015, WFD's inception was in alignment with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals, emphasizing the fundamental linkages between sexual health, human rights, and global development.[1]
Since its establishment, WFD has extended its reach to approximately 180 countries across Asia, Africa, and the Americas. Notable achievements include over 25 million website sessions and the provision of more than 300,000 direct-to-user services for abortion care, among others.[2]
WFD operates under a set of guiding principles, emphasizing the importance of innovative design, accessibility, scalability, data-driven insights, strategic collaborations, and user feedback to enhance digital health solutions.[3]
With this approach, WFD "aims to modernize self-care delivery and address systemic issues such as strained healthcare systems, stigmatizing attitudes, provider biases, legal restrictions, and limited care access in low-resource settings."[4]
To facilitate access to self-managed abortion and contraception, WFD has developed three primary e-health platforms: safe2choose, HowToUseAbortionPill, and find my method.[5][6][7] These platforms offer counseling services, stepwise instructions, and comprehensive information on contraceptive methods, respectively. WFD ensures multilingual accessibility and regional relevance by providing localized URLs and content.[6][8][9][10]
Collaboration is integral to WFD's mission, with partnerships spanning healthcare providers, governmental agencies, non-profit organizations, and international bodies. Notable collaborations include initiatives with Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF), and MSI Reproductive Choices, among others.[11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]
Research and publication endeavors contribute to WFD's advocacy efforts. Collaborative studies with organizations like Ipas CAM focus on understanding the impact of abortion stigma and violence on healthcare providers.[20] Moreover, WFD actively engages in advocacy for access to care and addresses digital censorship challenges faced by its platforms.[21][22]
Despite encountering digital censorship, WFD remains steadfast in its commitment to promoting women's health and autonomy. Through partnerships with organizations like Feminism in India and participation in international forums like RightsCon, WFD advocates for transparent content moderation and preserving democratic access to information.[23][24][25]
In recognition of its impactful work, WFD's animator Maria Florencia Scasso was honored as one of the 'Top 25 Emerging Women in Animation' at the GNA Confex, highlighting her contributions to the field of sexual and reproductive health.[26]
