The right to an adequate diet: the agriculture-food-health nexus 2012, para. 35
- Paragraph text
- The impacts of increasingly globalized food chains and the uniformization of diets across the globe have disparate impacts across population groups. As a country transitions towards higher income levels, the burden of overweight and obesity shifts. The poorest segment of the population is at low risk of obesity in poor countries, but in upper-middle income developing economies (with a gross national product per capita of over about US$ 2,500) and in high-income countries, it is the poorest who are most negatively affected. In high-income countries, while the poor bear a disproportionate burden of overweight or obesity, women are particularly at risk because their incomes are on average lower than those of men, and because men in the low-income group often are employed on tasks that are physically demanding and require large expenses of energy. Overweight or obese women tend to give birth to children who themselves tend to be overweight or obese, resulting in lower productivity and discrimination. Thus, socio-economic disadvantage is perpetuated across generations by the channel of overweight or obesity.

Criminalisation of sexual and reproductive health 2011, para. 8
- Paragraph text
- The Convention on the Rights of the Child provides for the protection of the right to health of young persons under the age of 18. Article 24 of the Convention affirms the right to health as established in the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, which is especially relevant given the importance of sexual and reproductive health to the lives of young women and men. The Convention urges States to ensure prenatal and post-natal care for mothers, develop family planning education and services and ensure the elimination of traditional practices that are "prejudicial to the health of children".

Right to health in early childhood - Right to survival and development 2015, para. 80
- Paragraph text
- International human rights law places particular emphasis on the responsibility of States to address discrimination against women and girls and ensure that they enjoy their rights on the basis of equality with men and boys. Among other actions, States must ensure that national law provides a robust framework for gender equality and non-discrimination. In the context of early child development, policies and programmes must pay particular attention to redressing discrimination and to equality. For example, parenting programmes should be gender sensitive and States should make particular efforts to address any discrepancy in educational attainment between girls and boys.

Sports and healthy lifestyles as contributing factors to the right to health 2016, para. 67
- Paragraph text
- Elsewhere, pernicious practices and beliefs hinder women's equal participation in sport. Despite repeated declarations and calls for action on equality in sport since the 1994 Brighton Declaration on Women and Sport, women's sport remains deprioritized and heavily underfunded globally. Among professional athletes, there are significant disparities between men and women in respect of incomes and prize money. One study found that men receive more prize money than women in 30 per cent of sports. Moreover, men's sport dominates media reporting.,

Criminalisation of sexual and reproductive health 2011, para. 56
- Paragraph text
- The provision of comprehensive education and information on sexual and reproductive health is an essential component of the right to health and to the realization of other rights, such as the right to education and access to information. Criminal and other laws restricting access to comprehensive education and information on sexual and reproductive health are thus incompatible with the full realization of the right to health and should be removed by States (see E/C.12/2000/4, para. 11). Both women and men are adversely affected by these barriers. Women, however, are disproportionately impacted.

- Paragraph text
- In addition to the rights outlined in the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, article 13 of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women guarantees women equal rights to participate in recreational activities, sports and all aspects of cultural life, without discrimination. This is reinforced by the obligation under article 10 of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women to take all appropriate measures to eliminate discrimination against women in respect of education, ensuring to women the same opportunities as to men to participate actively in sports and physical education. Article 5 of the same Convention also requires States to eliminate stereotyped roles for men and women, which equally applies in the field of sport and physical activity.

Occupational health 2012, para. 48
- Paragraph text
- In many respects, women are particularly vulnerable to negative health impacts resulting from conditions of work. The majority of women who work are employed in the informal sector, particularly in the lowest paid, lowest skilled jobs, where they are more likely to be exposed to hazardous working conditions. Women are on average paid less than men for the same work, and are more likely to experience violence and harassment in the workplace. Further, many occupational exposures are hazardous to reproductive organs, having serious implications for the sexual and reproductive health of female workers. For example, women of childbearing age, as well as pregnant women working in agriculture, are exposed to highly hazardous pesticides that risk not only their health but also the health of their children. Children born with congenital disorders due to in utero exposure to toxic chemicals endure disabilities for life. These problems are compounded by the fact that work-related diseases affecting women are often underdiagnosed and undercompensated as compared to men.

Gender perspectives on torture and other cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment or punishment 2016, para. 16
- Paragraph text
- Women comprise between 2 and 9 per cent of the prison population in 80 per cent of the world's prison systems. Although their numbers are increasing, their needs in detention often go unnoticed and unmet, as prisons and prison regimes are typically designed for men. However, women's unique experiences of prison, as well as the motivations for women's criminal behaviour and their pathways into criminal justice systems are often distinct from those of men (A/68/340). Different incarceration and treatment policies, services and even infrastructure are required to address women's distinct needs and ensure their protection.

Sports and healthy lifestyles as contributing factors to the right to health 2016, para. 63
- Paragraph text
- Securing the right of women to participate in physical activity can improve women's health. Women experience certain health risks at higher rates than men at various points in their lifespan, which are mitigated by exercise. For example, regular weight-bearing exercise has been shown to reduce the incidence of osteoporosis, a bone disease experienced primarily by postmenopausal women. Risks of other illnesses suffered almost exclusively by women, such as breast cancer, can also be modified through the promotion of physical activity and healthy lifestyles.

Sports and healthy lifestyles as contributing factors to the right to health 2016, para. 73
- Paragraph text
- Moreover, as women's motivations for engaging in exercise often differ from those of men, greater attention to acceptable forms of organized sport may increase female participation. Research has indicated that women frequently place more importance on social aspects of physical activity than on performance outcomes. In order to promote physical activity and sport, States should inform their policies with research, and adopt best practices adapted to the country and to the preferences of women, with meaningful participation by women in the design, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of policies and programmes.

Eliminating discrimination against women in economic and social life with a focus on economic crisis 2014, para. 95
- Paragraph text
- Sharing of care responsibilities within the household should remain a matter of choice for women and men. For any real choice to be possible, paid care leave must be available to both parents. The Nordic countries were the first to introduce an independent paternity leave in order to overcome stereotypes and barriers to men sharing childcare functions. Such provisions are becoming more common around the world, with increased awareness of men's parenting roles and their need to reconcile work and family life. Paternity leave is usually much shorter than maternity leave and more often unpaid. Some countries have introduced more gender-neutral parental leave options, and recent best practice in one Nordic country provides symmetry in childcare leave, with five months for each parent individually and two months that can be allocated according to parental choice.

Eliminating discrimination against women in economic and social life with a focus on economic crisis 2014, para. 90
- Paragraph text
- Unlike women's reproductive function, care functions do not necessarily have to fall on women. All forms of care, including childcare, are amenable to social reconstruction, and indeed in the Nordic countries, which have long pursued a policy of gender equality in the division of work and childcare functions, the distribution of care work comes close to parity. Good practice regarding the allocation of care responsibilities, pioneered in the Nordic countries, encourages men to enter traditionally women's worlds, both in the family and in the workplace, thus allowing women to participate and advance in the labour market.

Eliminating discrimination against women in economic and social life with a focus on economic crisis 2014, para. 94
- Paragraph text
- Redistributing care work involves restructuring the design, funding and delivery of care by households, markets, the State and civil society so that a disproportionate burden of unpaid care does not fall on women. The equal sharing of care amongst different actors requires, on one hand, the sharing of care responsibilities by men as well as women in households and, on the other, the provision by the State of affordable and accessible care facilities, including childcare, adequate hospital care and recuperation periods, and facilities for the care of the disabled and the elderly.

Eliminating discrimination against women in the area of health and safety, with a focus on the instrumentalization of women's bodies 2016, para. 16
- Paragraph text
- Substantive equality in the area of health and safety requires differential treatment. Throughout their life cycle from childhood to old age, women have health needs and vulnerabilities that are distinctively different from those of men. Women have specific biological functions, are exposed to health problems that affect only women, are victims of pervasive gender-based violence and, statistically speaking, live longer than men, resulting in their greater need to access health services frequently and into older age. Hence, women and girls experience the negative effects of insufficiencies in health-care services more intensively than men.

- Paragraph text
- Women prisoners show high rates of mental health problems owing to violence and trauma to which they had been exposed and which are exacerbated by imprisonment. Concerns about their children also have a significant impact on the mental health of women prisoners, especially when they are breastfeeding; separation from their children creates anxiety and guilt, resulting in great suffering. Women are more likely to harm themselves or attempt suicide while in detention than men. Extensive reliance on preventive use of psychotropic medication for "safety" reasons in such situations is an example of overmedicalization.

Eliminating discrimination against women in the area of health and safety, with a focus on the instrumentalization of women's bodies 2016, para. 89
- Paragraph text
- Health care is often unaffordable owing to discriminatory health insurance coverage. Some health insurance policies and programmes exclude various aspects of reproductive health care, including modern forms of contraception, termination of pregnancy and maternal care. Alternatively, some private health insurance schemes insure women's reproductive health needs but add a surcharge to the premiums paid by women. Good practice includes measures that discourage insurance companies from charging women more for health insurance than men because of perceived higher costs associated with women's reproductive health needs.

Criminalisation of sexual and reproductive health 2011, para. 49

- In chapter II, principle 8, of the Programme of Action of the International Conference on Population and Development confirms that States should take all appropriate measures to ensure, on a basis of equality of men and women, universal access to health-care services, including those related to reproductive health care, which includes family planning and sexual health. It also stresses the need for participation and notes that family planning programmes are most successful when women are fully involved in the design, provision, management and evaluation of services. It further adds that Governments should remove all unnecessary legal, medical, clinical and regulatory barriers to information and to access to family-planning services and methods. In paragraph 96, the Beijing Platform for Action declares that the human rights of women include their right to have control over and decide freely and responsibly on matters related to their sexuality, including sexual and reproductive health, free of coercion, discrimination and violence.

- The Vienna Declaration and Programme of Action stresses the indivisible, interdependent and interrelated nature of the two sets of rights. This is reinforced by the necessity of the realization of one to fulfil the other. For example, ensuring equal treatment of men and women in all spheres of their lives, such as the right to found a family, contained in article 23 (2) of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, cannot be achieved unless the right to sexual and reproductive health of women is realized by ensuring their right to access health facilities, goods and services.
