Women and Global Health Leadership

Abstract

Many barriers to entry, progression, and leadership for women within the realm of global health remain. But theorising about women’s leadership has always been greater than the counting of bodies within positions of power or balancing out men’s and women’s involvement. In this chapter we suggest a model of gender transformative leadership that could address power imbalances in global health and reiterate a call to act on inequity through feminist leadership in global health.
