For the first time, the EU Gender Equality Strategy 2026–2030 includes women's health as a distinct policy priority. The next step? a dedicated EU level strategy for women's health. EIWH's proposal sets out how. Read here: shorturl.at/sdOD3 #WomensHealth #EUPolicy
Graphic from the European Institute for Women's Health. Text reads: "Women's health now has a distinct priority in the EU Gender Equality Strategy 2026-30. What does this entail?" An EU flag and a heart with a heartbeat line sit at the top, with an illustration of two women flexing their arms at the right. The EIWH logo is in the lower corner.Graphic listing seven women's health commitments in the EU Gender Equality Strategy 2026–2030: menopause as a policy priority for the first time; closing the gap in health research, diagnosis and treatment; women's representation in clinical trials; respectful obstetric and gynaecological care; sexual and reproductive health including contraception; and a new WHO initiative on quality of care; mental and physical health promotion for women and girls, recognising the importance of addressing health inequalities throughout thr different life stages.

International Day of Action for Women’s Health Today, we highlight progress in Women’s Health. But: there are still considerable gaps and continued effort is needed to advance Women's Health! Systemic and social inequities are major barriers, holding back progress towards achieving health equity.

On #HumanRightsDay, EIWH highlights that the right to health belongs to everyone. Women, trans and non-binary people still face barriers to care. Human rights in health must be protected for everyone. #RightToHealth #HealthEquity #TransHealth #NonBinary #LGBTQIA #PublicHealth
