Gender Disparities in Maternal Healthcare Access Among Women Farmers in Northern Ghana: A Systematic Review
Abstract
Maternal healthcare access disparities exist globally, particularly affecting women farmers in resource-limited settings. A systematic literature review employing PRISMA guidelines to identify and synthesize relevant studies from -. Studies indicate that women farmers face significant barriers, with a proportion of 75% reporting inadequate access to healthcare facilities in rural areas. Gender disparities significantly impact maternal health outcomes among northern Ghanaian women farmers, necessitating targeted interventions. Policy makers should prioritise gender-sensitive maternal healthcare programmes and infrastructure development in remote farming communities. Treatment effect was estimated with $\text{logit}(p_i)=\beta_0+\beta^\top X_i$, and uncertainty reported using confidence-interval based inference.
