On Thursday 16 February 2017, UCL is launching a new Centre for Gender and Global Health, with the launch being funded by the ESRC.
The new centre comprises a multidisciplinary team that conducts research and works alongside policy-makers and policy-influencers to address the complex relationships between gender norms and health status.
If you wish to attend, pre-booking here is essential. If you are unable to attend in person we will be livestreaming the event. You can select a Livestream Viewer ticket to be sent a reminder email with the livestream link directly to your inbox.
