May 28 2003: 16th International Day of Action for Women’s Health and Launch
of Women's Access to Health Campaign


Call For Action 2003
Governments: Take Responsibility for Women’s Health!
Primary Health Care and Women’s Reproductive and Sexual Rights: Where are we
today?


In this year's Call for Action the Women’s Global Network for Reproductive
Rights (WGNRR)  places women’s rights to health as part of the larger demand
for a fresh look at women’s health needs within the framework of primary
health care.

This Call for Action will launch WGNRR’s 3 year campaign on the issue of
Women’s Access To Health (WAHC).

We join the People’s Health Movement to observe the year 2003 as the Year of
Alma Ata to remind UN Agencies, governments and other key actors of the WHO’
s Alma Ata declaration of their promise to deliver Health For All by the
year 2000!

You can access a copy of the Call for Action and sign up to be an active
campaign participant by visiting our website at www.wgnrr.org . Or contact
us ( see contact information below)  to receive a copy.

The Call for Action of WGNRR is meant to be an inspiring and stimulating
contribution to your work to make the 16th International Day of Action for
Women’s Health a huge success.

Together with the People’s Health Movement women’s groups and organisations
everywhere let us join forces to bring about change !


Mark the date and start preparing.


Together we can make a difference !



“Health is a social economic and political issue and above all
a fundamental human right.
Inequality, poverty, exploitation, violence and injustice are at the root of
ill health and the deaths of poor and marginalized people
. “

(Excerpt from Charter for People’s Health)




Women’s Access to Health Campaign is elaborated in close collaboration with
the People’s Health Movement.
