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 Proposal for Gender and Social Equity Research in Horticulture

Gender and Evaluation Colleagues,

My group, the Horticulture Innovation Lab, has released a request for proposals for research in gender and social equity in horticulture.  The request is here:  http://horticulture.ucdavis.edu/main/funding.htm.  

Quick details:

This is for 5 years of research for $1.5 million.  The lead investigator must be from the United States but the collaborators can be from other countries.  The work must take place in the Feed the Future countries as part of the US initiative, Feed the Future.  

Please send me a note if you have questions.

Keep smilin',

Amanda - acrump@ucdavis.edu

Hi Amanda,

I am interested in this project. Will go through the website link provided and get back to you. I am in the International Horticulture Congress, Brisbane at the moment and will share our experience (M.S.Swaminathan Research Foundation, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India) and share with you on how HOW HORTICULTURE REMEDIES HELP WOMEN AND CHILDREN GET RID OF NUTRITION MALADIES..

thanks
