| الوصف: | This article explores how government stakeholders understand gender issues in the promotion of maternal, newborn and child health equity in Ethiopia. Participants in the study group have observed/experienced persisting gender-related barriers to health, stemming from traditional gender roles. They also noted an increased inclusion of women in the health workforce since the introduction of the Health Extension Program. Addressing gender inequalities can shift the distribution of power, wealth, and risk within society to the benefit of disadvantaged groups. However, the framing of gender as a women’s health issue, advanced through patriarchal structures, does little to elevate the status of women or contribute to health equity. ; Global Affairs Canada (GAC) ; Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) |
