This Monday began the dissemination of the campaign #SaludParaTodas, is our right, created by an alliance of organizations to promote the right to health of women in the country.
It has more than 100 communication pieces that intend to visualize the sanitary conditions that Venezuelans live for a month and a half, challenging the State as a regulatory entity, androcentric medical practice, and the patriarchal health system.
The project involves the Venezuelan Association for Sexual Education, the Larense Family Planning Association, the Foundation for the Fight Against Breast Cancer, Las Comadres Púrpuras, Mujeres por los Derechos, Civil Association for Family Planning and the Gender Studies Unit. Bellacarla Jirón.
As part of their agenda, on March 18 they will present via zoom the Guidelines and Recommendations for Comprehensive Quality Care and Health, a manual prepared by women users of the health system, health operators and service providers, with information on access and comprehensive health care for Venezuelan women in times during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Likewise, on April 7 they will publish the results of the study The health of women in Venezuela: crisis of the health system and COVID-19, an investigation on the situation of girls, adolescents and women. These data were collected through surveys and health information in medical records of the gynecology and mastology services of the Larense Family Planning Association, in Barquisimeto, Lara state; the Foundation for the Fight against Breast Cancer in Valencia, Carabobo state; and the Civil Association of Family Planning, in the Capital District and Miranda.
