Despite decades of work to address the gender-based causes of ill health,
women are still dying needlessly and in large numbers. Will current initiatives
to improve women's health succeed in meeting the targets prescribed in the
Millennium Development Goals by 2015? This book presents strategies, approaches,
and tools to mainstream gender equity concerns in the formulation of health
policy and prctice. It brings together case studies from around the world that
illustrate ways of addressing the health needs and rights of women and men, and
ensuring equal access to health care.
