TDR’s Intersectional Gender Research Strategy

tdrhrp — Tue, 04 Jul 2023 14:14:53 +0000

An intersectional gender lens is important for inclusive and responsive infectious disease research programmes and universal health coverage efforts towards “leaving no one behind”. TDR supports and promotes an intersectional gender approach to research, ultimately focusing on the impact of gender dynamics and interconnected inequalities for the prevention and control of infectious diseases of poverty.
This strategy focuses on:
• Building research capacities on intersectional gender analysis in research on infectious diseases.
• Supporting intersectional gender analysis in research for implementation, to generate new evidence and knowledge on the intersections of gender and other social variables that influence the way in which implementation strategies work.
• Generating evidence on gender-intersecting inequalities in access to health services and those that influence differentials in vulnerability to, and the impact of, health conditions associated with infectious diseases in LMICs.
• Promoting an inclusive infectious disease research agenda

Introducing TDR’s intersectional gender analysis toolkit
