Funded Activity Summary

Gender has been cited as a powerful influence on the extent and distribution of adverse health outcomes, especially maternal and neonatal mortality. It has been suggested that global health and development targets cannot be reached without adequate attention to gender equity. A strong evidence base is vital if gender is to be meaningfully considered in the post-2015 agenda. This thesis aims to extend this evidence base.
