Gender and Sex Based Analysis: Resource Guide Now Available
(2007-04-17)
CIHR is taking a leadership role as part of the national and international movement to apply
gender and sex based analysis (GSBA) in research. A Resource Guide, designed under the auspices of the Institute of Gender and Health, was produced to help peer reviewers and applicants consider when and how sex and gender - and the interactions between them - influence the research they conduct and the health of women and men, girls and boys. It is part of a larger initiative to embed GSBA in all of
CIHR's activities and in the culture of health research in Canada.
Implementing GSBA in health research is fundamental to achieving research excellence. As such, the Resource Guide is meant to provide researchers and peer reviewers with a tool for the application of gender and sex-based analysis in health research.
