RSOG collaborates with various health professional organizations, civil societies, research institutions, governmental and non-governmental entities, as well as academic institutions to facilitate or contribute to the expansion and strengthening of universal health coverage for all women and girls in Rwanda.

This involves training healthcare providers, conducting research, leading clinical mentorships, and organizing conferences where the dissemination of knowledge and evidence on women's healthcare takes place. The key theme for the 10th Annual Scientific Conference is “Empowering Health Workforce to Drive Progress in Women and Girls Health.”
