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.

How evaluations contribute to addressing transformational change towards gender equality: Focus on agricultural research

 Join us on 4 June at 4PM Rome time (CEST) 

Building on the example of the recent thematic evaluation of IFAD’s support to Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment (GEWE) and on the evaluation of CGIAR GENDER Platform, the two speakers will discuss and address the following questions: 

  • How can evaluations serve as catalysts for transformation by informing future policies, strategies, and interventions?
  • What does gender transformative programming means in practice and how to find the evidence of gender transformative changes?
  • How can Feminist evaluation approaches encourage reflective, empowering, collaborative, and participatory processes that actively support social justice agendas?
  • How to ensure that the voices of different groups are heard in the evaluation process (concept of intersectionality)?
