Incorporating intersectional gender analysis into research on infectious diseases of poverty: a toolkit for health researchers

This toolkit aims to strengthen the capacity of researchers working on infectious diseases of poverty by incorporating an intersectional gender approach. The objectives of this document
are to:

1. strengthen the research capacity of disease-affected countries in intersectional gender approaches;

2. understand and address barriers to effective and quality implementation of health interventions oriented to prevent and control infectious diseases; and

3. explore solutions for enhancing equality in access to quality health care.

While this toolkit includes a focus on research that prioritizes the prevention and control of infectious diseases of poverty, it is equally relevant to other health research and interventions.
