The state of gender equality in global health: A deep dive into the 6th Global Health 50/50 report

Launched earlier this year, the sixth Global Health 50/50 report focussed for the first time on sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) in the workplace ranging from menstruation, abortion and menopause, to antenatal care and caring responsibilities. Our guests on this episode are the founders of Global Health 50/50, Professor Sarah Hawkes and Professor Kent Buse.
