Environmental Impacts on Women’s Health Disparities and Reproductive Health

Environmental Impacts on Women’s Health Disparities and Reproductive Health

 

Welcome to the new website for the virtual Women’s Environmental Health Disparities (EHD) Workshop that took place April 27-28, 2022.

The workshop fostered dialogue among NIEHS employees, clinicians, outside researchers, and members of the community to examine health outcomes related to women, and those assigned female at birth, and reproductive environmental health disparities (EHD). The goals of the workshop were to:

  • Raise awareness of the impact of structural racism, racial inequities, and the environment on adverse women’s reproductive health outcomes often observed in US health disparity populations.
  • Inform NIEHS of the current status of women’s reproductive EHD research and community outreach efforts.
  • Identify knowledge gaps in women’s reproductive EHD research that can be developed into scientific focus areas within the NIEHS.
