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.

Dear Rituu
Thanks for your query. By transformative interests I meant those that challenge power relations between women and men. The TN govt has improved drinking water supply (gender intensified), supply of sanitary pads in schools (sex specific) but not gender transformative interests of women like title deeds of houses on women's names, quota in private sector for women, programs to work with men and boys on gender (beyond life skills), giving protection to couples who adopt choice weddings. Rituu I have just finished writing up my ppt! will post it. Best Ranjani
Thanks for sharing your presentation. Please refer to slide number 9 what do you mean by - not gender transformative? looking forward to your response.
