Contextos educativos, educación e identidades de género de adolescentes de una localidad rural maya en Yucatán (Revista Ibero-americana de Educação; vol. 89, núm. 1) Year of publication: 2022 Author: Silvia Montejo Murillo Corporate author: Organización de Estados Iberoamericanos (OEI) El propósito de este artículo es comparar y explorar la identidad de género de mujeres adolescentes de una localidad rural maya, desde dos de sus contextos educativos: la escuela telesecundaria y la vida cotidiana en la comunidad. Se utilizaron entrevistas y observación participante para obtener los datos primarios cualitativos. Entre los principales hallazgos se destaca, que la estructura y rigidez institucional de la escuela, limita a las adolescentes poder actuar en ciertos momentos desde atributos sociales distintos a los que les ofrece su localidad. Asimismo, la escuela contribuyó a la individualización de las participantes y las formó para tener como representación deseable del “desarrollo” los valores del exterior, aspectos que no contribuyen necesariamente a la idea de “comunidad”. 
G7 Global Objectives On Girls’ Education: Baseline Report Year of publication: 2022 Corporate author: United Nations Girls' Education Initiative (UNGEI) This publication serves as a baseline report to accompany efforts of the G7 Accountability Working Group to monitor progress towards the two global objectives. It presents evidence on low- and lower-middle-income countries’ progress in achieving the two global objectives and what remains to be done.It is important to stress that the two G7 global objectives on girls’ education are measures of gender parity, which are necessary but not sufficient as measures of gender equality. Assessing progress towards the latter requires information, which tends not to be available systematically enough to allow a comparative perspective. However, this report provides insights to remaining challenges. 
Advocacy for Impact: Gender and Education Year of publication: 2022 Author: Justine Brice | Elodie Gnonlonfoun | Marina Gutiérrez García de Viedma | Chattalie Jayatilaka Corporate author: United Nations Girls' Education Initiative (UNGEI) There has been an urgent need to include a gender-inclusive, anti-racist and decolonial lens in advocacy strategies in recent years. In the rare circumstances these lenses were applied, they were not effectively utilised when designing and implementing an advocacy campaign regarding education. Often, an intersectional approach was not used to consider context-specific power dynamics impacting girls’ ability to access education. The first objective of this report is to understand the “best practices to design and implement advocacy strategies that are gender-inclusive and anti-racist in the development sector, with a focus on gender and education”. The second objective was to examine the evidence regarding the effectiveness and impact of different advocacy strategies. Thirdly, the study aimed to understand the “best tools and approaches to measure advocacy impact." This research was conducted by an LSE student research team exploring gender-inclusive and anti-racist advocacy strategies.
