Advancing gender equality in global health: What can we learn from successful gender integration across five UN agencies
The global nature of on-going crises – climate, economic, social, political – and their impact on health means more than ever a response supported via an effective multilateral system is needed. Not only have these crises worsened health inequities but they have also eroded strides advancing gender equality, with detrimental impacts in the health sector and beyond. Despite recent attacks against multilateralism, the United Nations (UN) and its ag…
A shared agenda for gender and Covid-19 research: Priorities based on broadening engagement in science
While the acute and collective crisis from the pandemic is over, an estimated 2.5 million people died from COVID-19 in 2022, tens of millions suffer from long COVID and national economies still reel from multiple deprivations exacerbated by the pandemic. Sex and gender biases deeply mark these evolving experiences of COVID-19, impacting the quality of science and effectiveness of the responses deployed. To galvanise change by strengthening eviden…
Institutional gender mainstreaming in health in UN Agencies: Promising strategies and ongoing challenges
While the United Nations has long implemented strategies to tackle deep-rooted gender-based inequalities and discrimination in its programmes and policies, there is limited evidence on successful strategies to foster institutional structures and practices that promote gender equality or institutional gender mainstreaming. This paper explores and analyses the experience of institutional gender mainstreaming within UN Agencies working on global hea…
Prioritising gender, equity, and human rights in a GRADE-based framework to inform future research on self care for sexual and reproductive health and rights
Introduction: In January 2019, the WHO reviewed evidence to develop global recommendations on self-care interventions for sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). Identification of research gaps is part of the WHO guidelines development process, but reliable methods to do so are currently lacking with gender, equity and human rights (GER) infrequently prioritised. Methods: We expanded a prior framework based on Grading of Evidence, Asses…
Financing intersectoral action for health: A systematic review of co-financing models
Comparing the Application of CEA and BCA to Tuberculosis Control Interventions in South Africa
Achieving ambitious targets to address the global tuberculosis (TB) epidemic requires consideration of the impact of competing interventions for improved identification of patients with TB. Cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) and benefit-cost analysis (BCA) are two approaches to economic evaluation that assess the costs and effects of competing alternatives. However, the differing theoretical basis and methodological approach to CEA and BCA is like…
An assessment of equity in the distribution of non-financial health care inputs across public primary health care facilities in Tanzania
This study has shown there are inequities in the distribution of health care inputs across public primary care facilities. This highlights the need to ensure a better coordinated and equitable distribution of inputs through regular monitoring of the availability of health care inputs and strengthening of reporting systems
Financing the HIV response in sub-Saharan Africa from domestic sources: Moving beyond a normative approach
Despite optimism about the end of AIDS, the HIV response requires sustained financing into the future. Given flat-lining international aid, countries' willingness and ability to shoulder this responsibility will be central to access to HIV care. This paper examines the potential to expand public HIV financing, and the extent to which governments have been utilising these options. We develop and compare a normative and empirical approach. First, w…
HIV and Aids vulnerability in fishing communities in Mangochi district, Malawi
The fisheries sector contributes significantly to Malawi's national economy and to the livelihoods of the poor as certain activities in the sector have relatively low barriers to entry. Various studies have shown that the fisheries sector suffers from high HIV prevalence in many low-income countries. In Malawi, HIV prevalence as well as the causes and impact of HIV infections among fisherfolk are yet to be assessed. Participatory action research …
