Since 1984 Womens Health Action has been at the forefront of womens health in New Zealand. Founded by health activists Phillida Bunkle and Sandra Coney, the group came to national prominence when it broke the story of the unfortunate experiment at National Womens Hospital in Auckland.Womens Health Action represented consumers at the inquiry and has stayed on the case by monitoring the implementation of the Cervical Inquiry Report, prodding sometimes reluctant health care officials. It played a leading role in helping to get cervical screening off the ground and lobbied to see the appointment of a Health Commissioner. Wellinformed, outspoken and sometimes controversial, Womens Health Action has a proven track record as advocates for women and health care consumers.
