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.

Two resources from CIVICUS
Here are two resources that the community may find useful:
Guidelines for Gender mainstreaming in project stages
<civicus.org/news-and-resources-127/toolkits/670-guidelines-for-gender-mainstreaming-in-project-stages>
The State of Civil Society 2013 Report
<socs.civicus.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/2013StateofCivilSocietyReport_full.pdf>
Both are connected to CIVICUS, an excellent global organisation, operating from its main base in South Africa.
The resource on on Gender mainstreaming is from 2011, but the Civil Society report is fresh and new, published in recent weeks.
it would be great if people add their thoughts – acclaim and criticism – on what they feel about the contents.
