Book excerpt: This toolkit aims to strengthen the capacity of researchers working on infectious diseases of poverty by incorporating an intersectional gender approach. The objectives of this document are to: 1) strengthen the research capacity of disease-affected countries in intersectional gender approaches; 2) understand and address barriers to effective and quality implementation of health interventions oriented to prevent and control infectious diseases; and 3) explore solutions for enhancing equality in access to quality health care. While this toolkit includes a focus on research that prioritizes the prevention and control of infectious diseases of poverty, it is equally relevant to other health research and interventions. Structure of the toolkit: The toolkit contains a collection of training modules that can be customized for different contexts. There are two introductory modules, after which, modules mirror the research process in terms of the design and development of the research, data collection, analysis, and reporting and dissemination. Key resources related to the specific gender analysis activities are included in each module. Each module ends by listing reflection questions/action items.
