In this Public Health Voices webinar, our expert panel explores the issue of intersectionality and gendered approaches to Inclusion Health research and services.
Inclusion health is an approach to addressing the inequities faced by people who are socially excluded, and who typically experience multiple overlapping risk factors for poor health, such as poverty, violence and complex trauma.
Structural violence disproportionately impacts women, who have higher levels of experience of poverty and personal violence. Join us as we explore why intersectional approaches are needed to understand how gender identity shapes the experiences and barriers women encounter in access to services.
"Such lack of professional curiosity in understanding why women disengage can keep women caught in the cycle of chronic exclusion and being misunderstood, particularly when these professionals can allocate or restrict access to essential housing, services or healthcare.” Grace Sumner, Founder of the Women's Inclusion Health Collective.
