Description
Marina Couva and co-authors review how women's empowerment shapes health in a 2024 paper. Empowerment, gaining say over one's own life choices, has been framed many ways across four decades of work. Their review sorts the models and offers a four step one built on inner and outer awareness and growth.
Many forces bend the path: gender, race, schooling, money freedom, family, faith, and the civic and political air. In male led societies women may feel powerless, which scars health even as women outlive men. Care that talks down can add to the harm. The authors frame empowerment as a lever for fairer health and stronger well being, in the home and in the clinic room alike.
