    Abstract:
    Ways to improve the health of women were discussed at the technical discussions at the World Health Assembly in May 1992. Nurses are being particularly urged to join up with the women's pressure groups in efforts to sensitize the media and politicians. ICN, for its part, will be enlisting nurses' cooperation in its 1994 International Nurses' Day campaign, which will show nurses how to educate women to improve their health, and thus that of their children and families. The WHA discussions produced two important recommendations: the establishment of indicators to monitor the evolution of women's health and of a Commission on Women's Health that would work toward health rights for women. Below, a summary of the discussions and proposals for action.
