Pages 484-489 | Published online: 20 Aug 2006
 

Abstract

At each meeting of the International Council on Women's Health Issues (ICOWHI), an award is given to a researcher from a developing country in recognition of her work to improve health care practice in her country. The Taylor & Francis Lectureship Award is funded by the Taylor & Francis Publishing Company to help the award winner to attend the ICOWHI Congress where she delivers a lecture about her research or practice. The prize also includes a small gift to help the researcher continue her work. It is the practice of Health Care for Women International to publish the Taylor & Francis Award lecture. This year's award was given to Maria da Conceiçã Maia de Oliveira in recognition of her work with women in the Amazon.
