    Abstract This study focuses on two key initiatives spearheaded by the Ministry of Health in Ethiopia, which have contributed to improving gender equality in primary healthcare (PHC): (1) a gender mainstreaming manual; and (2) the PHC response to gender-based violence (GBV). This case was selected as a promising practice because of the significant government leadership and ownership involved in advancing gender integration within a government health system. Based on in-depth analyses of interviews and published materials, it documents the context, a number of enabling factors and challenges encountered, and some of the outcomes achieved and lessons learned, including those that might be transferable to other contexts.
