The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into pharmaceutical practices raises critical ethical concerns, including algorithmic bias, data commodification and global health inequities. While existing AI ethics frameworks emphasise transparency and fairness, they often overlook structural vulnerabilities tied to race, gender and socioeconomic status. This paper introduces relational accountability-a feminist ethics framework-to critique AI-driven pharmaceutical practices, arguing that corporate reliance on biased algorithms exacerbates inequalities by design.

Reproductive coercion (RC) and intimate partner violence (IPV) are prevalent in Kenya and undermine women's reproductive agency; community-based women's groups may offer an opportunity to address these issues. We quantitatively examined women's participation in women-only self-help groups, described discussions of RC within these groups, and assessed differences based on prior experiences of RC and IPV among a clinic-based sample of Kenyan women seeking family planning services to inform future programming. Data were collected from 659 women of reproductive age seeking family planning services at six private clinics in Nairobi as part of the baseline for an intervention to address RC and IPV within family planning counseling.

Emergency response work has historically been performed by men and thus designed with them in mind; however, during the past few decades, increasing numbers of women are conducting this work.
