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.

RE-INTEGRATION OF WOMEN ACCUSED AS WITCHES INTO THEIR FAMILIES/COMMUNITIES.
In one of the regions of Ghana, women who are accused as witches are driven away (or escape death) in to one of six 'witches' camps in the region. These women most often go to the camps with young girls(children) of school going age.
I am trying to design a communication plan aimed at gradually re-integrating these 'witches' in their families and communities. Any ideas?
