SUMMARY:WHO GRISP Scholar Special Events: Gender and Routine Immunization
DESCRIPTION:Growing evidence points to the multiple ways in which gender influences risks, access to health services & ultimately health outcomes, including for immunization. To increase immunization coverage for children and people at different ages and leave no one behind, it is critical to understand and address the ways in which gender interacts with additional social determinants such as age, race, ethnicity, socio-economic background, migration status, gender identity & disability to create barriers to immunization. Applying a gender lens to immunization programming, therefore, goes beyond focusing on gender discrepancies in immunization coverage among girls and boys.\n\nThe session, brought to you by the Geneva Learning Foundation and the World Health Organization (WHO), will introduce the importance of gender in health & health programming and highlight how immunization interventions can expand coverage and widen reach by understanding and systematically analyzing & addressing gender roles, norms and relations as part of immunization service planning & delivery.
