Women in Global Health, Inc.
77th WHA Individual Statements
Thank you Chair,
We commend WHO on a progressive GPW14 and engaging stakeholders. Women in Global Health, with 56 national chapters, calls for a gender-transformative implementation of the GPW through:
1- Adopting stronger disaggregated and gender-responsive outcomes and indicators, building on its predecessor, including but not limited to sex and gender disaggregation, to be truly transformative in its implementation.
2- Intentional, concrete and gender-transformative implementation of the Human Resources for Health goals across its priority areas as women health workers, including community health workers, are at the core of health systems.
3- Prioritising equal leadership for women in health at community, national, regional and global levels as a strategic catalyst for achieving the overarching goal and objectives of the GPW.
We remain ready to support WHO in delivering GPW14.
Thank you,
