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.

Request for case studies on gender equality and climate change mitigation in agrifood systems

Dear G&E community,

I’m currently working with IRRI for a scoping study on gender equality and climate mitigation technologies and practices in agrifood systems. I’m trying to pull together case studies from agroecology, agroforestry, conservation agriculture, livestock systems, renewable energy, and water conservation that have shown positive examples of women’s resilience/empowerment being enhanced through the uptake of mitigation technologies/practices in these areas.

Given the group’s collective expertise, I am reaching out to the G&E network to request recommendations on positive models and case studies of climate mitigation in agri-food systems that have demonstrated gender-responsive results. 

If you are interested in sharing, please reply to this thread, or you can reply directly to my email at tavenka05@gmail.com

Thank you and kind regards,

Katie
