520 _a"Designed to help answer the question, ‘what works best when it comes to engaging men and boys for gender equality?’, this evidence review critically assesses trends and shifts in related social norms and structures over the past 20 years, successful policies and programmes and implications for best practice, and future directions for promoting men’s and boys’ support for gender equality across a variety of priority thematic areas. Each of the subsequent chapters reviews the changes that have taken place in the past 20 years across one thematic area, and the roles played by formal and informal institutions and policies in these changes. This framework is used to set the broader context for the discussion, which subsequently looks at specific programmes and policies supporting changes in gender relations, including those that focus on women and girls, as well as those that are not specifically aimed at gender equality. Finally, implications, questions and priorities for learning, gaps in evidence and knowledge are highlighted. The goal is to move beyond a narrow individualistic programmatic focus and attempt to achieve a broader and more comprehensive understanding of the interplay between laws, policies and institutional practices in achieving gender equality and the most effective pathways for sustainable change that take into account individual, community and structural factors. The chapters cover themes as follows: 1. Introduction: Framing the evidence and shifting social norms; 2. Poverty, work and employment; 3. Fatherhood, unpaid care and the care economy; 4. Education; 5. Sexual health and rights; 6. Health and wellbeing; 7. Sexual and gender-based violence; 8. Conflict, security and peace-building; 9. Public and political participation. This evidence review is part of a two-year learning and evidence project, EMERGE – or ‘Engendering Men: Evidence on Routes to Gender Equality’ – being undertaken by the Institute of Development Studies, Promundo-US and Sonke Gender Justice between January 2014 and January 2016, with funding from the UK Department for International Development (DFID). The evidence review, combined with other project elements, aims to cultivate stronger leadership for working with boys and men to promote gender equality, by gathering, interrelating, analysing and strategically disseminating evidence and lessons in targeted and accessible formats for improved learning, policy and practice."
