On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Both sex and gender matter to health, yet both are frequently ignored, overlooked or misunderstood in health policies, programmes and practices. In this talk I will use COVID-19 as an example to explore the influence that sex and gender exert in driving health inequities. Data will be drawn from our global COVID-19 sex-disaggregated tracker, and reasons to explain differences in health outcomes seen in men and women will be outlined. The talk will also touch on evidence for how the global health system currently responds to sex and gender, and how it could do better in the future in order to improve the health of everyone.
