EIWH Activities
The European Institute of Women’s Health works at EU, national, regional and local levels to promote women’s and family health issues, to improve health policy and promote gender equity in health.
We raise awareness of women’s health issues with a range of activities that are arranged under the headings below; reports, position papers, submissions, responses to EU Commission and governmental consultations.
We consult with our extensive network regularly and issue communications about these activities continuously.
The EIWH works in partnership with stakeholders from many organisations within EU funded projects and many other actions covering various topics related to women’s health.
Our work is presented under the types shown below:
Projects
The European Institute of Women’s Health works in collaboration with other partners or individually to generate an approach/solution to a specific issue/problem through projects. Projects are funded from external sources such as the European Commission.
Reports
The European Institute of Women’s Health publishes in depth publications on women’s health and policy issues. Reports cover a range of issues including:
women’s health status in Europe, health literacy, dementia and engendering health research, amongst others.
Policy Briefs
The European Institute of Women’s Health generates policy briefs on many issues and policies relevant to women’s health. They summarise issues and make recommendations for policy action in basic English. The policy briefings are distributed widely to stakeholders, policymakers and citizens.
These are our written statements about EU policy or projects that are pertinent to women’s health and written after consultation with the Institute’s Network.

Position papers are developed after consultation with the Institute’s Network, as written statements about EU policy and projects pertinent to women’s health.
