To improve women’s health, we need to address issues related to reproductive health, maternal deaths, malnutrition, and non-communicable diseases; through quality and affordable health services under universal health coverage. A holistic, comprehensive, and life-course approach beyond reproductive health is needed to achieve better health for women – starting from pregnancy and maintaining throughout the newborn, childhood, adolescence, and aging period. Women must be empowered to take care of their health.

Violence against women and girls is one of the top priority areas of concern requiring more and continued action in the South-East Asia Region. Women play a vital role in our communities. Healthy women will ensure a healthy family, healthy community, and healthy nations. Let us together “Make it happen: Improve women’s health”.



Soon, new technologies will emerge to assist care providers in treating women’s health conditions. Researchers have developed innovative medical treatments, such as a patient-operated device that prepares women for breast reconstruction using carbon dioxide instead of needles and a blood test that can detect whether gestation has started outside of the fallopian tubes. Other developing medical technologies include an at-home, do-it-yourself Pap smear and a test that determines pregnancy using saliva as a sample.

Women can lower the risk for cancers and other common illnesses with healthy habits and regular care provider visits. However, in many underserved communities nurse practitioners (NPs) and nurse midwives fill the shortage created by the lack of care providers, while covering service areas encompassing far too many clients. As America’s health care needs increase, care provider organizations will need many more NPs to ensure positive health outcomes for women in these communities.
