Today, on the International Day of the Girl Child, we’re called by the United Nations to stand with girls and to support them to take charge of their futures, focusing on the theme, “With Her: A Skilled GirlForce.” While there are many ways we can – and must – support girls to realize their full potential, we believe that one issue which deserves our urgent attention is eradicating child marriage. Around the world, an estimated 1 in 5 girls is still married before she is 18, and over 650 million women alive today have been married as children.
On October 10, 2018, the eve of the seventh official International Day of the Girl, Plan International and leading youth activists from around the globe hosted the

We at Equimundo believe that abortion is a human right and agree with the organizers of International Safe Abortion Day, that, “safe and accessible abortion is a social good that is inextricable from broader issues of social equality and justice.” As noted in the recent Guttmacher-Lancet Commission report, safe abortion is a key pillar of a comprehensive sexual and reproductive health and rights platform. This includes a women’s right to choose if and how a male partner is included in their SRH decisions and services.
Equimundo’s Tim Shand will present on evidence-based interventions to involve boys in sexual and reproductive health programming in a webinar on October 2, hosted by The Challenge Initiative.
What works, beyond programming, to shift gender norms on a large scale? Although programmatic approaches can have strong and lasting impacts, they often reach only a small fraction of a population where broader change is needed.
We often talk about violence passively: How many women face violence from a partner, or how many young men are at risk of gun violence in their neighborhoods. By doing so, we’re avoiding a major question: How do we explain the fact that so much of the world’s violence is carried out by men?

Sexual and reproductive health issues have made up 14% of the global burden of disease for more than two decades. The inability to meet individuals’ basic sexual and reproductive health needs – such as access to contraception and to sexually transmitted infection (STI) testing and treatment – poses a critical threat to the well-being of people worldwide.
With the increased focus on counterterrorism and countering violent extremism (CVE) in the past decade, policymakers have sought to better understand how to effectively engage different actors in fighting radicalization and recruitment to violent extremism. To date, however, few approaches seek to meaningfully understand how norms and identities related to manhood can both be drivers of such violence and unlock opportunities for its prevention.

O manual de treinamento "Engajando Homens para a Igualdade de Gênero no Local de Trabalho" envolve funcionários (homens e mulheres) em atividades e discussões dinâmicas em grupo, bem como em reflexões individuais, para promover culturas corporativas equitativas, respeitosas e colaborativas. O manual destaca como as normas e desigualdades de gênero levam a disparidades em direitos, oportunidades na força de trabalho e acesso a recursos para mulheres e homens. Os tópicos incluem: fundamentos de gênero; papéis e normas de gênero; divisões de trabalho por gênero; poder; violência de gênero; exploração, abuso e assédio sexual; aliança masculina; e habilidades de comunicação interpessoal.
As organizações parceiras divulgaram os resultados do Inquérito Internacional sobre Homens e Igualdade de Género (IMAGES) em vários novos países em 2018, contribuindo para a base de evidências sobre masculinidades
The United States was once a leader on supporting global efforts to end violence against women and promote women’s human rights. But under President Trump, the US government is now far from that; the decision to withdraw the country from the Human Rights Council is just one example.

Program P (“P” for the words for father in Portuguese, pai, and Spanish, padre) was developed in 2011 specifically to promote men’s positive involvement as fathers in maternal, newborn, and child health (MNCH) and in caring for their children. Since then, it has been adapted in close to 30 countries by a wide array of partner organizations, ranging from small community-based organizations to large multilateral development organizations and governments, often in partnership with Equimundo.

O relatório Situação da Paternidade no Mundo 2023 (SOWF 2023) revela que milhares de mulheres e homens em todo o mundo estão pedindo que o cuidado seja central em suas vidas, o que só pode ser resolvido por uma revisão fundamental das estruturas de poder, políticas e normas sociais em torno do trabalho de cuidado remunerado e não remunerado.
What’s going on globally with men and gender equality? Are things getting better, worse – both? We spoke to Gary Barker, Ph.D., CEO of Equimundo, to find out. He steers the IMAGES (International Men and Gender Equality Survey), which has gathered insights from 60,000 interviews in almost 40 countries on this topic over the past decade.
