Shifting the Paradigm for Gender Equity in Health Innovation: Transforming Research and Development to Better Meet Women’s Needs –  – 

Geneva Global Health Week – Gender equity is often neglected in health research and development.

However, they have been under-represented in clinical research, which has resulted in limited data on the risks and benefits of their use of health tools and fewer therapeutic options available to them. Join us for a conversation on gender inequities in research and how to empower women to make informed decisions about their health.
