🇵🇰 Meet Dr. Razia Fatima — a driving force in Pakistan’s fight against tuberculosis.

From her early days in a rural health centre in Rawalpindi to leading $338M in TB, HIV, and malaria programmes, her journey reflects resilience, persistence, and impact.

💬 “Motivation, dedication and setting high goals are essential success factors for women in research.”
Through TDR’s support, she has transformed local challenges into global impact — shaping national health programmes, empowering women in science, and inspiring a new generation of leaders.

🏅 In November 2024, she was awarded the prestigious Union Medal by The Union (International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease) — a recognition of her outstanding contributions to global TB control.

✨ Her story reminds us that even from the most modest beginnings, one woman’s vision can change the course of public health.

✨ From a nurse-midwife in Ghana to a global health leader with deep roots in Asia, Professor Pascale Allotey has always carried one mission: advancing equity in health.

Her journey with TDR began with research on gender and infectious diseases, breaking new ground in how science could better reflect the realities of women and vulnerable communities. That passion carried her across continents, into classrooms, and onto global stages.

Through her leadership, she not only shaped policies on sexual and reproductive health but also built capacity across SEARO and WPRO, training the next generation of scientists to see health through a lens of justice and inclusion. 🌏

“Being an African woman in research at a time of growing awareness of the issues propelled me into spaces I would not have otherwise expected to reach,” she reflects — a reminder of how courage and vision can open doors for others to follow.

Today, as Director of WHO’s Department of Sexual and Reproductive Health, Prof. Allotey continues to turn research into real-world change, proving that science led with empathy has the power to transform lives.
