The field of humanitarian logistics and health supply chain management has remained the domain of men, despite a seemingly neutral gender balance, and even a tilt in favour of women within many NGOs (Tatham and Kovács, 2009). As such, the question of why there are so few women in health supply chains and humanitarian logistics has recently risen to prominence within the health logistics literature, particularly when it comes to the last mile due to the majority of beneficiaries being women and children (WISE, 2006). The topic was initiated by Pam Steele, the director of Pamela Steele Associates (PSA), a strategic consulting, research and training company dedicated to improving supply chain management within the health and humanitarian sectors in developing countries. PSA is a member of the People that Deliver (PtD) initiative, under which this project was completed. PtD brings together a whole host of international stakeholders with expertise in humanitarian logistics and supply chain management to offer opinions and experiences on this issue of gender. Discussions took place via the International Association of Public Health Logisticians (IAPHL), which provided an online forum of more than 3,000 members with whom questions of gender and health supply chain management could be posed and subsequently discussed.
