Abstract
Women account for 70 per cent of the healthcare workforce, but we are seeing huge gaps in health worker supply that cannot be closed without addressing the gender issues that are faced within the health workforce. Pakistan: a case study We know from WHO findings that women form 70 per cent of the global health workforce. However, in Pakistan, more than 50,000 qualified female doctors are excluded from the health workforce. Aligned to this is the fact that roughly 48 per cent of Pakistani women still do not have a say in their healthcare, which makes the problem clearer.
