Women’s Health Action is a social change organisation, working to improve the health and well-being of women, their families and whanau, and communities.We are a charitable trust which aims to draw attention to the social determinants of women’s health, promote women’s human rights in health, and provide women with high quality information and education services to enable them to maintain their health and make informed choices about their health care.We have a health promotion and disease prevention focus, with special interests in breastfeeding, body image, sexual and reproductive justice, and screening. We approach health within a holistic framework of the whole of women’s lives, rather than from a narrowly medical perspective.

Women’s Health Action has been contracting to the Ministry of Health for over a decade and gratefully acknowledges some funding from the Ministry of Health in support of this website.
