In recent years feminist activists have turned their attention to health needs in developing regions of the world and the formation of international health policies. Several feminist advocacy groups have extended their reach to encourage recognition of universal health-related human rights. A FAB committee contributed to the 2008 revision of the Helsinki Declaration that specifies international standards for the ethical conduct of medical research. Many of the amendments to the Declaration originated within that committee (Eckenwiler et al. 2008; Goodyear et al. 2008). Members of FAB also participated in formulation of the UNESCO Declaration on Universal Norms on Bioethics (Rawlinson and Donchin 2005). Their work is complemented by non-governmental organizations in numerous developing countries.
