*Editorial Excerpt (by Ellen Reynolds):*
In the spirit of spring, this issue of Network "plants a seed" for our next
special issue on women's health and the environment with an introductory
article on climate change and its impacts on women's health. We have also
included information about the growing movement to involve more women in
decision making around climate change mitigation and adaptation.
Women's health and the environment is one of two primary focus areas at the
Canadian Women's Health Network this year. The other is mental health as we
continue to work as part of the Ad Hoc Working Group on Women, Mental Health,
Mental Illness and Addiction established by the CWHN in 2006. The Group is
working to ensure that sex- and gender-based analysis (SGBA) is included as the
newly formed federal Mental Health Commission begins to implement
recommendations from the Senate report Out of the Shadows at Last. Following a
focus on mental health in recent issues of Network, this issue doesn't address
the topic; instead, it reflects the diversity of other women's health issues
that have come to our attention lately, either through the work of the Centres
of Excellence for Women's Health or other CWHN partners.
