Listen " Is the gender pay gap real? Gender inequities in health and why we need women leaders"
Episode Synopsis
It is estimated that women comprise nearly 70% of the global health and social workforce, yet they only hold about 25% of senior leadership roles. This week, we share our thoughts on why we lack female leadership in healthcare and highlight why gender inequality is a global health issue. We discuss the socioeconomic factors that influence women’s career prospects all around the globe. We also address the gender pay gap and the important role men play in promoting gender equity. This week's case study: A Kenyan high court judge has declared that being a housewife is a full-time job, and it should therefore attract some form of compensation.
