Why more women in health research matters

Why does it matter who does healthcare research – and who the research is about? The answer is that it affects what questions are asked and which health problems receive attention. In a new research paper, two Danida-funded researchers, Christina Anne Vinter and Ditte Søndergaard Linde together with their colleague Lone Kjeld Petersen show how gender gaps in leadership and research priorities still influence global health.

A journey of rethinking leadership

Reagan Muyinda had already achieved a lot as a young leader, passionate about collaboration and change. Still, he found himself questioning what real leadership looks like. At Danida Fellowship Centre’s Network Leaders Convening in Arusha in 2024, four days of shared learning set him off on a new journey that transformed his view and practice of leadership and growth.
