What
do we know about gender & health in the enlarged European Union? Which are
the important gender specific health concerns in the new EU-member states at
present? Which are gender relevant aspects in debates like globalisation or
violence?
The specific country cultures are not only different in
regard to their health systems, but also in integrating gender aspects in
research, policy and practice. The very definitions of health, illness and
health related social problems are different. If networks focus on gender
specific aspects of health and illness, the necessity for transnational
communication is evident.
This book gives an overview about gender &
health in the EU with a strong focus on Eastern European Countries. Instruments
for bringing gender aspects in health related research, prevention and health
care are introduced. The increasing importance of the internet is shown. Central
elements in the process of intercultural networking are described.
The
book will support the efforts of mutual understanding and gives valuable
information for all who are involved in processes of networking in the field of
gender & health or will do it in the future.
