Real knowledge

We want everyone to know how to take gender into account when: providing health care or social care, working with clients, writing policy or delivering programs. We break down the information to make it simple and accessible.

Learning materials

We designed the resources in this course to be engaging and informative. The modules are easy to follow and are divided into chapters which contain reading, writing and multimedia activities.

We are dedicated to empowering you with the knowledge, skills, and confidence necessary to support the health and wellbeing of people in your communities.

“Great content”

This was such a well produced module - great content - good site - relevant questions - clear articulation of education outcomes - ample opportunity for contributions from the attendees - well done !
A/Prof Antonio Di Dio, medical practitioner

“I learned a lot”

I thought the course was excellent. I'm a beginner in gendered health and I learned a lot. I have a background in gender (employment, DFV and homelessness) but not health, so this was helpful for me.

“Relevance for GP clinic”

I think it has relevance for GP clinic practice managers and industry bodies to provide to their membership, perhaps secondary school curricula.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Who is your course for?

This course is for anyone who has a role supporting the health and wellbeing of their community. This includes health professionals, researchers, policy makers, students and people who provide community services.

I don't work in a health setting or organisation, can I still complete your course?

Absolutely. All community members keen to learn more about gender-responsive health are welcome to complete our course. This includes students and those who aspire to enter the health workforce or other relevant field.

Community-based advocates, lived experience practitioners, health consumers and those who work with priority populations such as young and old people, First Nations peoples, culturally and linguistically diverse communities and people living with disability are also encouraged to enrol.

Why gender-responsive health?

Women and gender diverse people experience health, illness and health care differently to men. This course aims to increase understanding about these differences and how gender-responsive approaches can improve health equity. Enrol to learn more!

I don't work in women's health, is this course still relevant for me?

Yes, this course is for everyone interested in learning how we can improve health outcomes for women, regardless of their job.

Will I get a certificate of completion?

Yes. You will receive a certificate once you have completed all 5 modules of 'Introduction to Gender-Responsive Health'.

Module 1 is now available. We will launch the remaining later in 2024. You will also earn an additional badge at the end of each module!
