Deep dive: A country-specific exploration of evidence addressing gender norms through programming with men and boys in Kenya
- Author: Stellah Bosire
This report presents findings from a country-specific deep dive conducted in Kenya by the Eastern Africa Gender, Social Norms and Agency Learning Collaborative, in partnership with the Center on Gender Equity and Health at the University of California San Diego.
Developed in support of the Gates Foundation’s Adolescent and Youth Learning Agenda, this deep dive explores how programming with men and boys is shifting social norms around masculinity to improve health and well-being outcomes for adolescent girls and young women.
The review focuses on interventions that engage faith and cultural champions and use entertainment media to influence social expectations and behaviours across four key domains: women’s economic empowerment, child, early, and forced marriage, gender-based violence, and sexual and reproductive health and rights.
