gender-responsive health systems

Gender-responsive health systems are healthcare frameworks that recognize and address the different health needs of individuals based on their gender. They ensure that services are equitable, accessible, and relevant to everyone's unique experiences, including women, men, and non-binary individuals. This approach considers how social, economic, and cultural factors influence health and seeks to eliminate disparities by tailoring health services and policies. By doing so, these systems aim to improve health outcomes and promote overall well-being for all genders.
