Dr ASMA, as her followers call her, Anourah Mazu is a pharmacist who graduated from the Faculty of Health Sciences in Cotonou. In the aftermath of the crisis that shook Benin’s pharmaceutical sector in February 2017, she launched the hashtag #Pharmanews on Facebook. Through it, she gives health advice and devotes most of her posts to health topics in general and to pharmacy in particular. Driven by a burning desire to change the image of the counter clerk that sticks to pharmacists, she decided in 2017 to create “ASMA santé” https://web.facebook.com/asmasantebenin/ , her blog dedicated to health advice. Through a wide range of high-quality content (articles, videos, visuals), sometimes produced in collaboration with other health professionals, she provides her blog’s followers and social media audiences with useful information on important topics such as vaginal dryness, weight gain, oral hygiene, malaria, the proper use of medicines and more. She now presents herself as a pharmacist 2.0, a true multifaceted figure who is transforming the image and perception of the pharmacist as a specialist in medicines. With “ASMA Santé”, she wants to inspire other pharmacy students to value and embrace all the other specialities in the field, and to give all Beninese people easier access to quality information about their health. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Join me on my official digital channels, Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/AurelieASZ/photos/a.1710372699021764/2311835948875433/?type=3&theater Twitter: https://twitter.com/AurelieASZ Until 30 March 2019, discover the profiles of exceptional women from a range of fields (social work, education, health, tourism, fashion, etc.) who are making an impact on their communities through digital tools and thereby helping to close the gender gap, the digital divide between women and men.
