The Health Strategy for Women and Islanders who are Gender Diverse outlines priorities in addressing the health and well-being needs of women and gender-diverse people, including the delivery of healthcare services. The five-year strategy includes the following four pillars to address those challenges:

  1. Create welcoming settings and environments to reduce stigma experienced by women and people who are gender diverse;
  2. Expand available, accessible services and care;
  3. Integrate and coordinate services to improve networked pathways of care for health services; and
  4. Build and share knowledge about sex- and gender-based health determinants, differences, needs and experiences.

The strategy also calls for indicators allowing to measure improvements in delivery of care that meet the needs of women and the gender diverse.
