Center on Gender Equity and Health

Who We Are

The Center on Gender Equity and Health is an action-oriented collective of researchers, policy specialists, and development experts working to eliminate gender inequities through impactful research, intervention testing, and capacity building and bridging.

We believe that gender equity, health, and dignity for all people is achievable.

We conduct collaborative action-oriented research to understand and advance gender equity and address related health disparities, locally and globally.

Our Work

When we understand how norms and agency shape systems and behavior we can shift those norms to improve well-being. GEH examines and generates evidence-based solutions to the multifaceted challenges that influence gender equity in health at all levels—from individual to national to global.

We build equity across research to policy systems

We create research for impact, partner to design and test what works on the ground, develop and use cutting edge approaches, build the next generation of scholars, and build connection and collaboration.
