该文件从相关文献的审查和两项性别分析中提炼出结果,以强调全球卫生高级职位性别失衡的原因以及解决这些问题的方法。组织、领导、暴力和歧视、研究和人力资源管理都考虑到性别因素。两个非洲卫生组织的性别分析所提供的补充材料表明,招聘、部署和晋升以及人际关系等过程如何不是“不分性别”的,而且性别化过程塑造了这些卫生组织的特权、地位和机会。组织性别分析、命名陈规定型观念、实质性平等原则、消除性别劣势的特别措施和有利条件可以促进变革,提高妇女在性别组织中发挥全球卫生高级作用的能力。政治战略和与自主女权运动的协同作用可以增加妇女的充分有效参与和平等机会。该文件还介绍了组织发展行动,以建立更多的性别平等的全球卫生组织。
The paper distils results from a review of relevant literature and two gender analyses to highlight reasons for gender imbalances in senior roles in global health and ways to address them. Organizations, leadership, violence and discrimination, research and human resource management are all gendered. Supplementary materials from gender analyses in two African health organizations demonstrate how processes such as hiring, deployment and promotion, and interpersonal relations, are not ‘gender-neutral’ and that gendering processes shape privilege, status and opportunity in these health organizations. Organizational gender analysis, naming stereotypes, substantive equality principles, special measures and enabling conditions to dismantle gendered disadvantage can catalyze changes to improve women's ability to play senior global health roles in gendered organizations. Political strategies and synergies with autonomous feminist movements can increase women's full and effective participation and equal opportunities. The paper also presents organizational development actions to bring about more gender egalitarian global health organizations.
