Astha Ramaiya Co-author Article in Journal of Adolescence

The article, led by Linnea Zimmerman examines how opportunity structures (parental influence and neighborhood context) affects individual agency among boys and girls in Kinshasa, DRC. We used longitudinal data to identify three distinct groups for boys and girls in each domain. Parental monitoring was associated with the development of both domains for boys, but showed no association for girls. Conversely, parental closeness was more strongly associated with development for girls, than for boys. Neighborhood safety was associated with greater Voice and Freedom of Movement for both boys and girls.

Dear All,

I hope this post finds you well, and I wanted to share the link to the country profiles of the Human Development Report 2020. These newly released indicators are valuable for our context analysis. 

The country profiles have the following indicators:

  • Human Development Index (HDI),
  • Inequality-Adjusted Human Development Index (IHDI), 
  • Gender Development Index (GDI), 
  • Gender Inequality Index (GII), and the Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI). 
  • Among other data used in these indices and other human development indicators.
