ABSTRACT

Sustainable development in health is broadly associated with policies, projects and investments which offer benefits without inimical inputs on environmental, social and personal health. Bioengineering solutions are primordial, pivotal and critical to advance the health of women, and are key drivers to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with particular focus on SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being) and SDG 5 (Gender Equality). The focus of bioengineers is on the extant healthcare contradictions which have created the pertinence to develop innovative diagnostic and therapeutic apparatus designed to female physiology. Global critical reflections expose significant imbalances and invariance in bioengineering for the health of women, which suppress sustainable development goals. This work addresses in scope and depth, a critical intersection of bioengineering, sustainable development and the health of women. It essentially enacts an endowed tapestry of extant technological advancements and their potential applications, framed within the urgent global context of SDGs, demonstrating a topical coverage from advanced biomaterial applications and diagnostics to wearable technologies. The article links bioengineering advancements to more expansive health and gender equitable objectives with relevance and timeliness of this research sphere, and significant value in future perspective of both extant benefits and potential future trajectories.
