The event will take place on September 22\, 2025. \nAcross every region outlined by the World Health Organization\, women experience longer life expectancies than men. However\, women have a shorter health expectancy\, equating to more years where their quality of life is reduced due to disease or injury. This trend has worsened since the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. Women experience unique challenges over the course of their lifespans\, due to biological sex differences in health and disease\, as well as sociocultural influences related to gender. Gender health gaps persist in research investment for conditions that disproportionately affect women\, policies that should ensure equitable access to health care and resources\, and the development of workforces that train and promote women in health care delivery and leadership. \n“Transforming Women’s Health through Science & Sustainable Partnerships” discussed key developments and opportunities to advance women’s health research\, education\, and policies\, presenting insights from successful models employed from grassroot initiatives to international collaborations. Attendees discussed strategies to implement change in their respective jurisdictions and have opportunities to forge collaborations across the women’s health care and policy ecosystem. \nRead takeaways from the UNGA80 event on the blog: Collaborating for Women’s Health at the UNGA80 Science Summit \nCheck out SWHR’s event at the UNGA79 last year as well: Women’s Unique Health Needs and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) \nFor any questions about attending this event\, please email info@swhr.org. \n  URL:https://swhr.org/event/transforming-womens-health-through-science-and-sustainable-partnerships/ CATEGORIES:Conference or Symposium,Public Event,Science Event,SWHR Event END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250925T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250925T160000 DTSTAMP:20250829T140059Z CREATED:20250829T140059Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250829T140059Z UID:10000954-1758812400-1758816000@swhr.org SUMMARY:NIH Women's Health Research Roundtable: Reaching Rural Women - Implications for Research on Pregnancy DESCRIPTION:The Women’s Health Research Roundtable presents a lectures series focused on a range of issues impacting women’s health.
