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 Community Members,

I am currently writing a paper on evaluating gender training for the UN Women Training Centre. I am looking for examples of good practice and experiences of evaluating gender training - whether from a feminist perspective or otherwise. 

Any contributions would be warmly received, and of course you would be credited and acknowledged in the paper.

Many thanks,

Lucy Ferguson

Hi Lucy,

Kindly approach Fem Consult as they have first hand experiences and might be willing to share relevant reports with you. 

Through my own supervision work I learn that participants following the Learning Routes on Gender in Value Chain and using methodology Gender Action Learning System (GALS) walk the talk when back home. Yet, it does not answer your question. Nonetheless, when participating in a Learning Route, one goes home with a plan and this plan needs to be implemented. Henceforth, progress made and performance achieved with implementing LR Gender Plan might tell you something. Procasor Africa team can tell you more.

Friendly regards,

Lucy M.
