Studies in Spanish on Gender, Health, and Equity
The Pan American Health Organization presents five
studies in Spanish
on gender, health and equity, published originally
in English. The
series examines the gender as one of the factors in
the overall
morbidity issue and in the inequities in health, and
presents conceptual
elements to advance the analysis on equity and policies.

"Rethinking
Differences and Rights in Sexual and Reproductive
Health"
This manual, developed with support from the USAID,
promotes an approach to sexual and reproductive health
care that recognizes different needs and perspectives
within a context of respect for the rights and dignity
of men and women. It is designed to provide health
professionals with a framework for examining the quality
of care, including the quality of human relations,
technical quality, and quality of administration and
management of health services.
