The 20204 Global Health 50/50 report, ‘Gaining ground?’
Thrilled to be Featured in the 2024 Global Health 50/50 Report
This report takes a profound look at the power dynamics shaping global health, asking critical questions:
- Who sets the priorities and solutions?
- What interests, worldviews, and principles drive these decisions?
- Who ultimately benefits, and who gets left behind?
Global Health 50/50’s 2024 Report presents a detailed analysis of gender equality and diversity in global health leadership across 201 organisations active in global health. Drawing on seven years of annual assessments, and for the first time reviewing the data for the nonprofit (UN, multi- and bi-laterals, NGOs, etc) and the for-profit sectors separately, the Report finds that important progress has been made, including reaching gender parity among nonprofit board members. Yet significant disparities remain. The Report highlights that only 2% of nonprofit board seats are held by women from low-income countries. It calls for urgent structural changes and rigorous accountability to foster inclusive, equitable and effective organisations active in global health.
