Promoting equality and addressing discrimination are health promotion’s core business (WHO, 1986; Tremblay, 2020). Intersectionality theory provides a useful framework for both understanding and addressing inequality, and thus is becoming an important analytic tool within our field (Heard et al., 2019). We are seeing intersectionality theory applied in health promotion research to better understand inequality; practitioners are grappling with what it means to apply this complex theory in practice (Reid et al., 2012; Gkiouleka et al., 2018; Heard et al., 2019). I describe how I have begun to explore the application of intersectionality theory to guide health promotion practice in the context of sexual violence prevention in a university setting.
