AB  - Introduction and objective; This study aims to examine how the concept of just transition is addressed not only in the context of environmental sustainability but also in relation to gender equality and health policy. Particular attention is given to how academic interest in the female health workforce has evolved on a global scale.Materials and methods; A systematic search was conducted in the Web of Science database to identify publications focusing on the themes of “female health workforce,” “green jobs,” and “gender equality” (n=415). Bibliometric analysis was performed to map academic collaboration networks and thematic intensity clusters.Findings and conclusion; More than 70% of the 415 publications analyzed were produced after 2015. The most prominent research fields were sociology (13.25%), management (13.01%), and women’s studies (11.57%). The United States accounted for the largest share of publications (30.36%), while Turkey was represented with a significantly lower share (1.45%). In the keyword co-occurrence analysis, “gender” emerged as the most central concept, indicating that gender has become the main axis of the literature on just transition. Technological investments or green finance instruments alone are insufficient to implement just transition in the health sector. Rather, holistic and gender-equitable policies must be developed, which center on women's caregiving labor, leadership roles, and employment security. This approach is not only essential for achieving sustainable development goals but also for constructing a future grounded in human dignity.

N2  - Giriş ve amaç; Bu çalışma, adil geçiş kavramının yalnızca çevresel sürdürülebilirlik boyutunda değil, toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliği ve sağlık politikaları özelinde de nasıl ele alındığını incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Özellikle kadın sağlık işgücüne yönelik akademik ilginin küresel ölçekte nasıl şekillendiği ortaya konulmuştur.Gereç ve yöntem; Araştırmada, Web of Science veri tabanında gerçekleştirilen sistematik tarama ile "kadın sağlık işgücü", "yeşil işler" ve "toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliği" temalarını içeren yayınlar analiz edilmiştir. (n=415) Bibliyometrik çözümleme ile akademik işbirliği ağları ve tematik yoğunluk alanları incelenmiştir.Bulgular ve sonuç; İncelenen 415 yayının %70’inden fazlası 2015 sonrası dönemde üretilmiş; sosyoloji (%13,25), yönetim (%13,01) ve kadın çalışmaları (%11,57) en yoğun alanlar olmuştur. En çok katkı %30,36 oranla ABD’den gelirken, Türkiye yalnızca %1,45’lik payla literatürde düşük düzeyde temsil edilmiştir. Anahtar kelime analizinde “gender” kavramı en merkezi konumda yer almış ve toplumsal cinsiyetin adil geçiş literatürünün ana eksenini oluşturduğu saptanmıştır. Adil geçişin sağlık sektörü özelinde hayata geçirilebilmesi için yalnızca teknolojik yatırımlar veya yeşil finansman araçları yeterli değildir; kadınların bakım emeği, liderlik rolleri ve iş güvencesi temelinde şekillenen bütüncül ve eşitlikçi politikalar geliştirilmelidir. Bu yaklaşım, sürdürülebilir kalkınma hedeflerinin ötesinde, insan onuruna yakışır bir gelecek inşası için zorunludur.
