THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION WILL OFFICIALLY INTRODUCE A THIRD GENDER
Representatives of the organization stated that they are updating their "Gender Mainstreaming Guide", originally published in 2011. The guidelines, used by healthcare professionals around the world, are updated to reflect "new scientific evidence and conceptual progress" in the field of gender, health and development.
As indicated on the website of the organization itself, gender is the socially determined characteristics of women, men, girls and boys.
This includes norms, behaviors and roles related to belonging to women, men, girls or boys, as well as relationships with each other. As a social construct, gender varies from society to society and can change over time.
The Gender Guide is built on a common framework for Governments and businesses that calls for a gender-sensitive assessment to justify gender-transformative measures and remedies, providing a number of illustrations of how to put this into practice. The Gender Guidelines clearly indicate that implementation requires a response to "differentiated, overlapping and disproportionate negative impact on human rights," as well as steps "capable of changing patriarchal norms and unequal power relations that underlie discrimination, gender violence and gender stereotypes." Thus, the organization believes that gender should not be limited to men and women only.
However, some experts criticize this update, believing that its adoption will be fraught with a number of problems.
"It's a rejection of basic biology and a mistake," said Jenny Gamble, a professor at Coventry University's School of Nursing, Midwifery and Health. Gamble insists that the new management may lead to unforeseen problems.
