Founder of Speciallady Awareness NGO (Ghana) and Speciallady Awareness Global (UK), Elizabeth Amoaa
In a world where reproductive health challenges remain underrepresented, especially among minority and underserved communities, Elizabeth Amoaa rises as a force of change. As the Founder of Speciallady Awareness NGO (Ghana) and Speciallady Awareness Global (UK), she is more than an advocate; she is a movement.
Born with a rare gynaecological condition, uterus didelphys (two wombs, two cervixes and two vaginal canals), and also living with stage 4 endometriosis and multiple fibroids, Elizabeth transformed personal adversity into global activism.
Her journey, defined by resilience and purpose, has inspired thousands and improved the lives of women and girls across continents. She is widely recognised for her commitment to health equity, women’s empowerment and education.
Speciallady Awareness continues to grow through strategic partnerships, including The Otumfuo Osei Tutu II Foundation, a leader in cultural heritage and social development in Ghana. The National Youth Authority, under Ghana’s Ministry of Youth Development, aims to educate young women about reproductive health rights and challenges.
Through these collaborations, the NGO has expanded health outreach campaigns, distributed vital medical supplies and created safe spaces for education, dialogue and community healing.
In the UK, Elizabeth furthers her work through Speciallady Awareness Global, collaborating with local government officials, including mayors and councillors, medical experts and reproductive health researchers and renowned organisations such as Endometriosis UK, raising awareness about conditions disproportionately affecting African, Caribbean and other ethnic minority women.
Together, they are breaking the silence around conditions like endometriosis, fibroids and fighting stigma with science, compassion and community.
Elizabeth’s influence has gained international recognition. Her story and mission have been featured in World Leaders Summit Magazine, USA Health Magazine, Boots Health & Beauty (UK), Juno Magazine (UK), British Army Forces Families Magazine (Army & You), My Story (Ghana) and other global platforms amplifying voices for change.
Her visibility is not about prestige; it is about representation, ensuring women’s health is never overlooked, underfunded, or misunderstood.
Through both her organisations, Elizabeth has conducted transformative outreach in underserved Ghanaian communities, donated medical supplies to healthcare facilities, donated sanitary pads to 40,000 female students and led awareness campaigns reaching women and girls in both urban and rural areas.
Her journey is more than one of survival, it’s a blueprint for global change. She continues to challenge stigma, amplify unheard voices and light the way for women and girls navigating the shadows of reproductive health struggles.
Elizabeth reminds us that true empowerment begins with awareness and that every woman regardless of background deserves dignity, access to healthcare and the power to be heard.
As we look to the future, Elizabeth stands as a symbol of what’s possible when courage meets compassion. Her mission is far from over and her impact will continue to ripple across generations and geographies.
Let us not only celebrate her achievements but stand beside her in action. Because when one woman rises, she lifts countless others with her.
Together, we are not just raising awareness, we are rewriting the narrative.
Elizabeth Amoaa is the voice of gynaecology, fearlessly speaking for those who’ve been unheard for too long.
She is an example for every woman who has suffered in silence, every young girl yearning for answers and every community seeking dignity and care.
