Introducing the next generation of global products, systems, and partnerships for equitable access to sexual and reproductive health and rights.
The Challenge Ahead
Many girls and women are not able to fully realize their sexual and reproductive health and rights, nor safely and effectively use products and services.
Although innovations are available, millions can’t access them yet due to cultural and societal constraints as well as regulatory and market failures. This is a fundamental global inequity that needs to change.
Our vision is a world where all people can exercise their sexual and reproductive rights, and fulfill their true potential.

Hear From Our Partners
We value effectiveness, integrity, peer learning, and a collaborative spirit in all of our partnerships.
“Working with WCG Cares (now Catalyst Global) on the registration of new contraceptive methods in developing country markets has been a joy. They understand the range of stakeholders from pharma and regulatory authorities to advocates, providers, and clients; they appreciate the diversity of regulatory pathways and are creative in finding the way forward with governments, manufacturers, and sponsors; they communicate seamlessly with every party, and willingly share their approach with other members of the Reproductive Health Supplies Coalition. They are indeed invaluable partners for expanding markets!”
John Townsend, PhD
Ethical Review Board, Population Council
“When WCG Cares (now Catalyst Global) came to the province, we were the worst-performing province when it came to reproductive health services. Today we are proud as a province to say, We’ve got reproductive health services for our women. When they started, we had five facilities [that offer reproductive health services], and now we have close to twenty, which means it’s an increase in access to women. I’d like to thank MAX and Catalyst Global for making that possible for the province and the communities to access the services when they are needed.”
Ms. Dudu Mdluli
Chief Director, Mpumalanga Province South Africa
“WCG Cares (now Catalyst Global) is a valued and committed partner on the Dual Prevention Pill (DPP) Consortium. They have brought their deep expertise in supporting contraceptive introduction to bear on the market preparation strategy for this new multi-purpose technology. They are reliable, assiduous, and able to strategically think through complex issues.”
