ALT Our graphical abstract where we posit that our efforts in BMI to improve health should address intersectionality’s five key considerations: (1) systems of privilege and oppression that shape health; (2) the interrelated nature of upstream health drivers; (3) the nuances of health outcomes within groups; (4) the problematic and power-laden nature of categories that we assign to people in research and in society; and (5) research to inform and support social change. We then provide details on how to engage with each of these considerations across four research phases.
