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.

Global Social Development Congress in Istanbul
Is anyone from this board attending the Global Social Development Congress in Istanbul next week, or based in Istanbul? I'll be there talking about my work in supporting conflict-affected community organizers and post-secondary learners, but would love to meet anyone working on gender and development, particularly in West Africa, the Middle East, or Latin America. (If are based in Istanbul and would like to attend, I might be able to get you a free or heavily discounted ticket - registration is crazy expensive.)
