Perpetual Afua Boatemaa Aidoo is a dedicated fifth-year clinical pharmacy student who has spent her academic career advocating for structural patient care and women’s health. Serving as a lead secretary and strategic member of her community’s women’s committee, Perpetual observed firsthand the deep discrepancies in health education and wellness resources available to young girls. This experience fueled her desire to look past the standard pharmaceutical counter. As a WAAW Scholar, her goal is to step into clinical research and join international health coalitions, using her advanced pharmacology training to formulate targeted public health campaigns that support, educate, and protect vulnerable women throughout Ghanaian society.
