Summary

Despite increasing evidence that gender equity strengthens governance, improving both social and conservation outcomes, women remain marginalised from most formal conservation decision-making. Current efforts to promote gender equity pay insufficient attention to the social norms and practices that maintain inequality and often have limited impact on the status quo. This project will implement and learn from an innovative approach, supporting men and women to reflect on and challenge harmful gender norms and promote alternatives, for more equitable and effective conservation.
