Gender Equality in Health

Gender equality in health means ensuring men, women, and all gender identities have equal access to healthcare, services, and opportunities to achieve optimal health. It recognizes differences often caused by social, cultural, or economic factors and works to remove barriers that prevent equitable treatment. This promotes fairness, improves health outcomes for everyone, and supports a more just society. Addressing gender disparities in health involves understanding unique needs and providing tailored care, leading to better overall well-being for all individuals regardless of gender.
