Using Quantitative Methods to Understand Gender and Intersectionality in Urban Health Research: The MAIHDA approach

This guide introduces MAIHDA (Multilevel Analysis of Individual Heterogeneity and Discriminatory Accuracy), a quantitative approach for understanding how gender and other overlapping social factors, such as age, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status, combine to shape health inequalities. It explains how MAIHDA helps researchers identify vulnerable population groups, measure intersectional inequities, and generate evidence to support more targeted and equitable health policies and interventions.
