Abstract:
Health reporting provides information on the health of the population and thus forms the basis for adequate health promotion, prevention, and care. In order to better represent social diversity, the joint project AdvanceGender (funded by the German Federal Ministry for Education and Research) aims to promote the development of a gender-sensitive and intersectional approach to population-based studies and health reporting. The three subprojects research study participation, data analysis, and health reporting. Based on the results, recommendations for epidemiological studies and for health reporting will be developed.
