Why we focused on economic factors in women and health

A recent World Economic Forum report (2024) documented that women spend 25% more time in “poor” health than men. It indicated that investments addressing the women’s health gap could add years to life and life to years, and potentially boost the global economy by more than $1 trillion annually by 2040.

The root causes of this health gap for women are: lack of scientific inquiry specific to women; data collection that systematically under-reports significant women’s health issues; healthcare delivery and access problems; and low investment in women’s health conditions despite their prevalence.
