- Description
- History of the UK Women's Liberation Movement. Oral history testimonies power the work, tracing the arc of a feminist life from 1950s girlhoods to late life activism today. The author uses oral history as creative method, making significant use of ‘Sisterhood and After: The Women's Liberation Oral History Project’ to animate still-unresolved controversies of race, class, sexuality, disability, and feminist identity. She provides insight into iconic actions including the Miss World Protest, the fight to protect abortion rights, and the peace protest at Greenham Common. She also explores men's violence and today's demands for trans-liberation as areas of continuing feminist concern.

- Description
- This study takes a wide-angle, comparative lens to the lives of men – as sons and husbands and fathers, at home and at work, in public and private life – to better understand how they see their positions as men, and their attitudes and actions toward gender equality in the Middle East and North Africa. Equally important are women’s perspectives on these same issues. Its wealth of quantitative and qualitative findings complements a growing body of research on men and masculinities in the MENA region.

- Description
- 'This research focuses on heterosexual Dutch male attitudes towards the sex industry. The purpose was to explore how their cultural environment may provide a different script for sexuality development and therefore different opinions on legalization or criminalization of prostitution. The goal was to answer the question of whether or not Dutch males, compared to men interviewed in previous research, developed a different attitude towards sex work and sex workers within the context of legal prostitution and more comprehensive sex education, both of which aid in creating a cultural script that impacts sexuality development. Four Dutch males were interviewed along with one former sex worker. In the analysis, the results were compared to prior research to determine commonalities and differences. Conclusions illustrated an increase in support for legal prostitution, different reasons for utilizing services, a recognition of buying sex services as more common and less associated with criminal activity.'

- Description
- In this report, supported by Cartier Philanthropy, ICRW provides a historical overview of the nearly 40-year-old male engagement field, as well as guidance for stakeholders on how to support the funding, design, and implementation of programming that engages men and boys in transforming gender norms. The insights they offer are drawn from published and grey literature, key informant interviews, and a convening of global experts on male engagement programming for gender equity and women’s empowerment. Specifically, this report details approaches, challenges, and best practices for working with men to achieve gender equity in six sectors: violence against women and girls, health, economic empowerment, care work and fatherhood, land rights and agriculture, and political participation.

- Description
- 'Afghanistan’s context is permeated by a cultural definition of masculinities and femininities that has been passed on from generation to generation. The present threats to Afghan women and men are shaped by detrimental traditional practices. Such practices suppress women and make them vulnerable to violence. .The study aims at an in-depth understanding of various notions of being an Afghan man (masculinities) and their contribution to gender inequality in four provinces of Afghanistan. The goal is to explain how men’s attitudes, perceptions and actions are influenced by these socioculturally constructed ideas of manhood, and how these factors further affect the interaction between men and women in Afghan communities. However, even though masculinity is a significant gender studies issue, the term “gender” for Afghans is connected almost exclusively with women, with only very limited research incorporating male and female perspectives. Men’s resistance to .messages about what may be interpreted as “women’s issues” makes more sense if the collective failure to adequately analyse and address their experiences and identities is considered. Thus, the study seeks to explore the meaning of Afghan manhood both quantitatively and qualitatively. Without a concrete strategy to move beyond static generalisations and work both with and frompersonal experience, men will continue to be marginalised in relation to discussions of gender and remain “the problem,” and men will continue to dominate women’s lives.'

- Description
- 'This Eurobarometer Survey seeks to measure Europeans' perceptions of gender inequalities within their own country: how widespread inequalities between women and men are, and whether the situation has improved or worsened compared with ten years ago: whether men or women are more likely to experience such .discrimination among particular groups of people (young, old, people with disabilities, migrants, single parents, and working parents with young children): and the areas of life (e.g. work, school, media, politics) where gender stereotypes are deemed to be most prevalent. It also examines Europeans’ general attitudes towards gender equality and, more specifically, the role of women in the workplace and the role of men at home. In .terms of tackling gender inequalities, the survey provides measures on Europeans’ opinions on which organisations have contributed most over the last ten years: whether this should be an EU priority: which areas should be dealt with most urgently: and what measures are considered to be the most effective at increasing the number of women in the workplace, and increasing the amount of time men spend on home care activities. .Finally, the survey explores the issue of violence against women – what Europeans think this encompasses and which specific forms of such violence the EU should focus its efforts on.'

- Description
- 'An increasing majority of refugees live in cities and they face gender-based violence risks as a result of unmet needs and intersecting oppressions based on gender, race, sexual orientation, and disability among others. .A deeper understanding of the nuances and complexities of urban risks is essential to addressing violence and bridging the protection gaps affecting marginalized groups who have been traditionally overlooked in humanitarian response. Protecting refugees with heightened risks – women, adolescent girls, LGBTI individuals, persons with disabilities, sex workers and male survivors of sexual violence – requires innovative, tailored programming and outreach. This new reality necessitates a monumental shift in humanitarian response, requiring policy makers, donors, and practitioners to develop new programming that addresses the protection concerns of refugees in urban contexts in Quito, Ecuador: Beirut, Lebanon: Kampala, Uganda: and Delhi and India.'
