For her, gender equity is not abstract, but an everyday reality \u2013 both in her research and at home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Recently, Marr Chung recalled having to juggle a flood of group texts, amidst a closely approaching manuscript deadline, with five other mothers all coordinating a carpooling schedule for their high school sons\u2019 water polo practice. Ironically, the manuscript Marr Chung was preparing was on women\u2019s leadership in global health. Particularly, she had researched women\u2019s underrepresentation in leadership roles while facing barriers like disproportionate caregiving responsibilities \u2013 just like the five mothers and herself coordinating carpooling.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThis is just one example of the invisible, unpaid, and undervalued work that women do as caregivers, also known as the second shift,\u201d said Marr Chung.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The manuscript, co-authored by Marr Chung, along with Ola Alani, MS, CIGH research coordinator, and Michele Barry, MD, senior associate dean and director of CIGH, with funding from CIGH-founded nonprofit WomenLift Health, is now published in PLOS Global Public Health. In it, Marr Chung, Alani, and Barry shine light on the specific barriers women face in advancing to leadership roles in global health and underscore the importance of male allyship, in an effort to establish more equitable global health research.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In this context, male allyship is defined as the \u201cpurposeful collaboration by males who inherently have more privilege and power with the goal of achieving gender equity through the promotion of women\u2019s voices and accomplishments,\u201d said Marr Chung.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For Barry, who founded WomenLift Health to help women step into leadership positions, \u201cit became crystal clear that male allyship was a crucial factor,\u201d she said. \u201cI believe most men want to be mentors and allies of women colleagues, but at times lack the tools. It was my hope that this study, which was funded by WomenLift, helps give them some of those tools.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Recommendations for effective male allyship<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The publication seeks to address a longstanding challenge in global health: Inequitable representation of women in leadership positions. This study advocates for increased male allyship, identifying actions and best practices that can support women\u2019s elevation into leadership roles in the field of global health. Researchers conducted qualitative interviews with 21 global health leaders (11 females, 10 males) across the U.S. and Canada to learn about barriers to women\u2019s advancement to leadership, along with effective approaches to overcoming these barriers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">From these interviews, researchers identified several recommendations for male allies spanning the individual, institutional, and societal levels. Some key recommendations are listed below.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Individual level<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Complete a self-assessment (to mitigate counterproductive behaviors and biases)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Engage in effective mentorship practices<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Advocate publicly<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">And serve as a positive caregiving role model<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Institutional level<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Emphasize the importance of cultivating an enabling environment that facilitates open dialogue and collaboration rather than competition<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Establish goals and metrics and make them publicly available<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">And integrate required allyship training for all faculty as well as into periodic evaluations and promotion criteria<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Societal level<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Promote early education and shared caregiving to shift cultural norms on gender roles<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The authors acknowledged a limitation of this study in only interviewing global health leaders based at academic institutions in the U.S. and Canada, with gaps in representation across ethnicities, gender identities, and institution types. As a next step, they plan to gather feedback from mid-career African physicians and expand research to additional geographic contexts through a global survey.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Why women\u2019s leadership matters<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Currently, women make up close to 70% of the global health workforce but only hold 25% leadership positions. When women hold leadership positions, more equitable, inclusive, collaborative workplaces tend to follow. In particular, women leaders have supported climate mitigation and other global health challenges; prioritized the needs of girls, women, and vulnerable or overlooked populations; and increased women participants in research studies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I believe most men want to be mentors and allies of women colleagues, but at times lack the tools. It was my hope that this study \u2026 helps give them some of those tools.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dr. Michele Barry<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Director, Center for Innovation in Global Health<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Women CEOs have increased from 29% to 35% since 2018, women are still far from having equal leadership representation in global health and other sectors. This highlights the persistent need to address structural barriers that continue to shape leadership advancement, the publication\u2019s authors write.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cIt\u2019s incumbent upon us as a society to really challenge and discuss gender roles and stereotypes and biases as well as caregiving, power, and privilege, not just in the classrooms but around the family dinner table,\u201d said Marr Chung, describing her appreciation for her own male allies, including her husband and two sons. This is especially urgent with the rise of the manosphere, toxic masculinity, and the increasing potential of AI to harm women and girls, she added.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Marr Chung continued: \u201cThis mentality of a rising tide lifts all boats will result in better research, better relationships, and a healthier planet and people.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Writer: <\/span><b>Catherine Wu<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Image: Attendees of the 2024 WomenLift Global Health Conference held in Tanzania gather for a mentorship breakfast.
