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.

COVID-19 at the Intersection of Gender and Disability: Ensuring a Gender- and Disability-Inclusive Response and Recovery
Date: Tuesday, December 1, 2020

Women, girls, and gender non-conforming persons with disabilities have been disproportionately denied access to healthcare, experienced violence, and have been unable to meet their basic needs during the COVID-19 pandemic, due to discrimination based on both gender and disability. During this event, advocates from around the globe will relay experiences from their communities and offer thoughts on how to ensure a more gender- and disability-inclusive COVID-19 response moving forward. 
CART, International Sign Language, and English-Spanish simultaneous interpretation will be available. If you require other reasonable accommodations to participate in this event, please contact info@womenenabled.org.
