Dear Hub Community,


We are pleased to announce the upcoming community event organized by the Global Health Hub Germany’s Global Women’s Health subgroup on feminist policy.


In recent years, feminist approaches to policymaking have received increased attention. In Germany, the government has introduced feminist guidelines for its foreign and development policy, and calls are made to apply a feminist lens to global health policy. For good reasons: research shows that women, gender minorities, and marginalized populations often face multiple barriers in receiving the health services they need, increasing their risk of facing infections and diseases or dying from preventable deaths, e.g., in pregnancy and childbirth. Feminist global health policy prioritizes equity, intersectionality, inclusivity, and the diverse health challenges faced by marginalized groups, particularly women, gender minorities and multiply oppressed individuals. In a world where health disparities persist, these approaches push for policies that address systemic inequities, working towards designing health programs that benefit everyone and leave no one behind.


The webinar will provide a 101 on feminist approaches to global health policy and explore examples for their implementation. Participants should attain a comprehensive understanding of the principles of feminist global health policy, their added value for German policymaking, as well as their challenges and pitfalls.


The audience will have the opportunity to listen to and discuss with our distinctive panelists:
