The Intricate Web of Inequities in Women’s Health

Description:

Women’s Health continues to be a highly complex issue with many layers contributing to inequity, inequality and lack of access. In the absence of an infrastructure that is supportive of women’s health at the level required to ensure quality care, it is on brands, patients and providers to help close the gap as best as they can. The issue is that investment in women’s health is lacking and policies continue to contract women’s health rights. So, how do we continue to create meaningful change? This panel is part of Lippe Taylor Group’s Health Equity panel series.
