The European Institute of Women's Health (EIWH) is a women's health and family health policy development institution. It was established in 1996,[1] primarily to ensure women's health. All aspects of family health and well-being were on the European and national member parliament agendas. The EIWH is a non-governmental organization,[2] established as a company, and has no shares. Its administrative office is based in Dublin, Ireland and it is a registered charity.[2]

The EIWH aims to influence the European Parliament, European Commission, and other international organizations and agencies to ensure the health and well-being of women in particular. [1] They actively work to promote increased understanding of the roles of biological sex and gender as determinants of health in order to develop comprehensive health care systems across Europe that provide equitable care to all.[1]
