Please see attached list of current Women's Health Taskforce members as requested. However, it is important to note that public engagement on women's health issues is not limited to the members of the Taskforce. Listening to women is a core element of the work of the Taskforce. Since its inception, the Taskforce has completed extensive engagements with women across the country and advocacy groups representing the interests of women; this has been in the form of listening exercises, National Surveys, meetings, conferences, etc.

The Taskforce continues to listen to the voice of women through the representatives on the Taskforce, correspondence to my Department, via the Women’s Health Taskforce email address (womenshealthtaskforce@health.gov.ie), through various listening fora and numerous webinars and seminars.
