Resumen

We are in the midst of a gender reckoning in the fields of science, medicine, and global health (Clark et al., 2017). Four contemporary social movements have helped shape the global gender and health landscape: online movements against violence, including #MeToo and #NiUnaMenos; intersectional feminism; the evolving recognition of men and masculinities; and the global trans rights movement. These movements are transforming the health sciences, forcing us to grapple with “questions of agency, vulnerability, and the dynamic and changing realities of gendered power relations” (Hilhorst et al., 2018: online). We are living through transformative and challenging times.
