Publisher: World Health Organization, 2007

Status – CURRENT

The framework addresses the health status and factors that influence women’s health at midlife and older ages with a focus on gender. It provides guidance on how policy-makers, practitioners, non-government organisations and civil society can improve the health and wellbeing of ageing women by simultaneously applying both a gender and an ageing lens in their policies, programmes and practices, as well as in research.
