OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
The COVID-19 pandemic exposed existing faultlines in health inequities, throwing into sharp relief the differences in health outcomes depending on socio-demographic and structural drivers such as poverty, race, geography and gender. Very few of these inequities were unexpected, but, conversely, few of them seem to have played a significant role in driving the policy responses from national/sub-national Governments around the world.
Presenting data collected for the past two and a half years in constructing the world’s largest database of sex-disaggregated COVID-19 data from national sources, this talk will explore the evidence around the roles that sex and gender played in health inequities in the COVID-19 pandemic. It will review the extent to which health policies were gender-responsive, and will question what might be contributing to the gap between evidence and policy.
