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.

Advocating/Promoting Gender and Social Equity for inclusion into developing countries' Evaluation policies and Legal framework is largely critical to their SDGs Success

It seems most developing nations are still coming to terms with Challenges and Lessons Learnt from their MDGs Implementation Years.  The reality now is the adoption of the SDGs, and while reviewing the lessons learnt is a good practice to emulate going forward, there is the dire need to advocate and promote Gender and Social Equity for inclusion into developing countries' Evaluation policies and Legal framework, which is largely critical to their SDGs Success Story.  Promoting Gender and Social Equity via Equal Opportunity Evolution (EOE) Principles at work, in communities and in national constitutional proposals could be the game changer or aid in driving the much needed theory of change in most developing nations where male gender dominance in Parliament is a perceived norm.  Please support and advocate Equal Opportunity Evolution (EOE) Principles in your developing or advanced society.  Thank you for listening and sharing.
