HEALTH AND GENDER 2007-2008 REPORT. WOMEN AND MEN IN HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONS |
Descripción: |
This report is in keeping with the Ministry of Health and Consumers Affairs line of action relating to gender mainstreaming as a constant feature of healthcare policies that has been sustained for the last three years. It is equally one of the goals envisaged in the Quality Plan for the National Health System. This second report is also in line with the Spanish Governments undertakings; in actual terms with the development of Organic Law 3/2007 of 22nd March, for effective equality of women and men, which in Article 27 compels to «integration of the principle of equality in the health policy». If the previous report focused on general aspects of the connections between health and gender, this year the focal point is health of women and men in central ages of their life span. |
