Women's Right to Health

Lyana Khairuddin, Educator, Researcher and Writer

Women's Right to Health

Access to affordable and relevant health services and to accurate, comprehensive health information are fundamental human rights. Yet, gender-based discrimination, lack of access to education, poverty, and violence against women and girls can all prevent these rights from being realized for women and girls -- challenges that are often particularly acute when it comes to marginalised communities. Lyana Khairuddin, an educator, researcher and writer, joins us to discuss why women’s rights to health should no longer be sidelined.
