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.

Systems Thinking: prioritizing gender, marginalized voices and ecologies

Hi all

Ellen Lewis and I are working with UN Women's Evaluation Specialists to develop a gender-sensitive and systemic guidance for evaluation practice. We have set up a discussion group so that we can interact with people about this. I know that people have strong feelings about this because evaluation practice has such potential to create responsive and lasting change. So join the group. Respond to our questions or ask your own. We look forward to, and really want to, hear from you.

Cheers

Anne & Ellen
