Feminist Global Health Policy : Addressing Health Inequalities through an Intersectional Perspective Paperback / softback
by Hannah Eger
Part of the BestMasters series
Paperback / softback
Description
Health inequalities, primarily driven by the structural determinants of health, are a major concern towards the global goal of health for all.
A feminist global health policy has the potential to address the unequal distribution of power and to dismantle these imbalances.
The prioritisation of intersectional, holistic, human rights-based approaches intends to advance health equality and reproductive justice.
This research examined the contours and potentials of a feminist global health policy by developing a framework.
Online focus groups were conducted with participants affiliated to either the global-academic or local-activist level, envisaging global representation.
The elaborated framework provides a nexus between the global and the local level, by entailing universal principles as well as recommendations and sensitivity for context-specific adaptations.
Community and policymakers are identified as key actors.
This research aims to stimulate a debate on feminist global health policy and the potential of this framework with regard to health equality and reproductive justice.
