  ABSTRACT: Positive healthcare outcomes are paramount for national competiveness, as a nation’s population is among its most valuable assets. This study examines the relationship between national political stability and control of corruption, female educational achievements and national health outcomes. Results show that increases in a nation’s political stability and control of corruption affect female educational achievement positively. We also found that improved female educational level is associated with their presence in top firm and parliament positions. Further analysis showed that greater female representation in parliament increases national health standards.
