Learning Network Brief, 46, April 2025
This Brief outlines diverse examples of intersectional masculinities, aiming to deepen our understanding and efforts to address
GBV. It begins by examining how colonialism has shaped dominant understandings of gender and masculinity. The Brief
then explores diverse cultural perspectives on masculinity. The impacts and unique expressions of GBV are then highlighted
to demonstrate how power dynamics and GBV operate alongside an intersecting spectrum of masculinities across gender
diversity, race, disability, class, and age. Finally, it concludes by sharing and drawing from underrepresented models of
masculinity to challenge colonial constructions of masculinity for a more inclusive approach to addressing GBV. (From the Brief). Record #9188
