Women and Health—the focus of this Commission—is a novel concept that refers to the multifaceted pathways through which women and health interact, moving beyond the traditional and exclusive focus on women’s health to address the roles of women as both users and providers of health care, and highlighting the potential for synergy between them.
In this Commission, we analyse existing and original evidence about the complex relations between women and health. We examine the major economic, environ mental, social, political, demographic, and epide miological transitions happening worldwide, their implications on the health system, and their eff ects on women and health.
