Examine the gender dimension of health and disease and address the articulation of gender roles and ideologies with health status, the organization of health care, and health policies in a cross-cultural perspective. Utilize the Gender-based Analysis Plus (GBA+) approach for examining how diverse groups of women, men, and non-binary people experience health policies, programs and initiatives. The “plus” in GBA+ shows that GBA goes beyond biological (sex) and socio-cultural (gender) differences, including how racism and other social injustices and their intersections with gender and sexuality compound the challenges faced by many marginalized groups. |
