Manitoba has released a new Women’s Health Strategy. The initial Manitoba Women’s Health Strategy was developed in 2000-2001 to provide a foundation on which to build a new approach to women’s health. That strategy identified specific goals and projects which laid out a roadmap for government initiatives in the years that followed.
In 2009, the departments of Manitoba Health (MH) and Manitoba Healthy Living, Youth and Seniors (HLYS) partnered with Manitoba Status of Women to revisit the Women’s Health Strategy. MH and HLYS also contracted the Women’s Health Clinic, who participated in the original strategy, to assist in gathering information through a series of 10 regional consultations.
The results of those consultations have been used to inform this renewed strategy.
The strategy can be found on the Manitoba government website [3].
