Promoting Gender Integration in Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) Gender impacts health outcomes significantly, influencing everything from service delivery to access to information and care. There is need to identify and tackle gender-related barriers that hinder effective SRH service delivery and understand the gender dynamics at different levels of healthcare. Mainstreaming gender integration in SRH is not just about equality—it’s about enhancing health outcomes for all. When we consider gender in our planning and implementation, we ensure that SRH services are more accessible, acceptable, and effective for everyone, regardless of gender. @USAID #GenderIntegration #SRH #PublicHealth #HealthEquity #GenderEquality

🚨 Gender inequality in rural areas remains a critical issue! 🚜 Rural women face barriers in accessing land, equipment, funding, and property rights. Public institutions must step up to eliminate discrimination and ensure equal access to resources. The Supreme Audit Institutions of North Macedonia, Albania, and Kosovo have joined forces, conducting a cooperative gender audit to assess policies that promote the inclusion of rural women in the labor market. 🌾💼 Watch our latest video to learn more: https://lnkd.in/gjWbFkJt
