Abstract:
Background and Aim: The right to health is a fundamental human right that concerns people of all ages, genders and races. The existence of a significant connection between the right to health and human rights has led to special attention from international institutions and extensive measures to identify and realize it. Meanwhile, the right to women's health has always been emphasized by international and humanitarian law. Today, the significance of women's position in society and their role in comprehensive social development is undeniable. In this study, we seek to analyze how governments can enhance women's health rights by complying with international legal standards.
Method: This article has been written based on theoretical analysis, while using descriptive-analytical method and library-based sources.
Ethical Considerations: In this research, the principles of trustworthiness, honesty and originality of the texts have been observed.
Results: Achieving women's right to health requires governments to provide comprehensive care that addresses their physical, spiritual, intellectual and social needs. In addition, governments should establish the necessary foundations and implement financial and legal measures to advance women's right to health.
Conclusion: It is important for governments to prioritize the growth and promotion of health models, providing necessary infrastructure, cultural attachments and effective laws in the field of women's health and health. Besides, it is crucial to address gender-based discrimination and exclusion that violate human rights and women's freedoms.
