HeRWAI Case Studies

HeRWAI can be used as a tool to analyse a wide range of policies. These can be health policies, or they can include policies which do not directly address health issues but have an impact on health. HeRWAI is particularly relevant in cases where policy-makers may overlook women’s health rights, and it can be used to analyse an existing policy or to review the expected impact of a policy which is still being developed.

A number of organisations have produced case studies of their HeRWAI analysis. These are made available here as a guide to others undertaking such a project.
