The
purpose of Women's Health and Education Center (WHEC) is to support and improve
the educational opportunities and general health of women and particularly
women of the developing countries. Women's health and status is a very complex
and challenging issue for the developing and industrialized countries both.
Women face enormous obstacles -- prejudice, ostracism, domestic violence, poverty,
hunger and virtually no access to medical care and life saving medicines. The
Women's Health and Education Center is dedicated to women's health and well
being worldwide.
Its
web site, WomensHealthSection.com is for educational purposes, between USA
and developing countries of: Mutual Benefit and Mutual Respect. We support and
help projects / programs in women's health, education and research. We believe:
On this path effort never goes to waste, and there is no failure.
Each year more than 500, 000 women die in pregnancy or childbirth and less than 10 million children die before their fifth birthday- nearly 40% of these in the first month of life. But evidence shows that at least 6 million of these lives can be saved each year with proven, cost-effective interventions.
Our Vision: A world where all women and children receive the care
they need to live healthy, productive lives.
Our Goal: To invest in, deliver and advance maternal, newborn and child
health, and thereby put 50% of the 60 high-burden countries "on
track" to achieve MDGs 4 and 5 in 5 years. _______________________________________________________________
Healthcare providers and policy makers will find our articles and forums useful and helpful in improving women's health and status in both industrialized and developing countries. We welcome comments and suggestions from all those working for Safe Motherhood.
Even though each country has its unique culture, economics and politics—they all share similar developmental challenges. This whole world is a developing country -- some have a longer way to go than others.
Cultural Diversity is now the norm in each and every country. Women's Health and Education Center (WHEC) respects the rights of patients, colleagues and the communities. We plan development together. In this forum we are all equals, working towards a common goal -- to improve maternal and child health worldwide.
WomensHealthSection.com -- Knowledge that touches patients; is a vision for the Globalized World. The use of information science and telecommunications to support the practice of medicine when distance separates the caregiver from the patient is the way forward to make medical care more affordable and more accessible in every country. A strong and vital health workforce is an investment in health for today and the future. It has profound effect on all the Citizens of the World, and political, social, economic systems. We welcome everyone.
The Journal, WomensHealthSection.com, is the official publication of The Women's Health and Education Center (WHEC), NGO in Special Consultative Status of the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations.

To ensure the widest possible availability of authoritative information and guidance on public health matters, WHEC encourages its translation and adaptation.
