The analysis showed that interventions such as prescription audits, adherence to standard treatment [...]

ProjectCompleted PROPUL EvidenceTeam Funded byWHO This completed evidence gap analysis explored how gender and intersecting social factors influence vulnerability to climate-sensitive infectious diseases in LMICs. Our findings show a severe lack of intersectional analysis and gender-transformative approaches in current literature. A guide was developed to support inclusive climate-health research and [...]

ProjectCompleted PROPUL EvidenceTeam Funded byWHO This completed project systematically mapped studies from LMICs examining how gender intersects with social factors in the context of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). We found limited intersectional research, with most studies conflating sex and gender. Our analysis identifies key gaps and calls for equity-focused,mixed-methods research in [...]
