The question Lauren and I came up with is ,what is the health access for Islamic women compared to non-Islamic women in the Netherlands (Amsterdam specifically).
Some real life examples I found on the Internet was the Dutch Ministry of Foreign affairs. This website explained women's health care and where people go to receive this Health care in various cities in the Netherlands. www.minbuza.nl/en/welcome/netherlands/general.health
Another site I found to be helpful for "physical" research was "Muslim Meds and health care". This article discussed how Muslims view health care. It also discussed an Islamic hospital that is being built in Rotterdam the second largest city in the Netherlands. Maybe we could do some interviews of doctors who are going to work there, or the government planners for the hospital. Also found from this website that 5.5 percent of the dutch population is Muslim and disproportionaly more than half the women in shelters are Muslim women. Shows that Dutch rights are not being accepted by the Muslim community as much as the government would hope this could include health care access.
Another site, US department of State: Showed a poll and statistics concerning women's health care acess and non-Islamic views on health care access.
One polss showed that 70 percent of the non-Islamic population believe that women of the islamic faith are treated unfairly. www.sta/tegov/g/drl/vis/romt/2006/78830.html
Ll of this sites can help in researching in Amsterdam. They gave physical ideas of where to start and what to lookfor when concerning women's access to health care.

Nice: but what's your synecdoche?
I want to comment more substantially--this *is* a strong post. The US state dpt poll is an *excellent* way to frame your inquiry, as it sets the terms for unfair treatment. I'd like to follow up on the issue of ethnicity once you play around with the email I sent you from World Cat.
