By applying an approach that included network analysis, the research concluded that diffusion pathways are distinct according to sex/gender. The extent to which access to information is limited to one sex/gender reduces the likelihood of reaching the entire community. Places where men’s and women’s discussion networks can connect are essential for the diffusion of health and environmental knowledge and practices.Text1 digital file (p. 69-76)Application/pdfenGENDER ROLESENVIRONMENTAL RISKSHEALTH EQUITYHEALTH INFORMATIONHEALTH PROMOTIONSOCIAL NETWORKSGENDER RESEARCHENVIRONMENTAL HEALTHCLIMATE CHANGE AND WATERBIASECOHEALTHPESTICIDESCOSTA RICAGLOBALBook Chapter
