Transforming 'MEN'talities: Gender Equality and Masculinities in India; Roadmap and Scoping Report Year of publication: 2021 Author: Christopher Coley | Christie M. Gressel | Rao R. Bhavani Corporate author: UNESCO This Transforming ‘Men’talities Report is consolidated into a few key messages and crucial responsible parties who can potentially take up these key messages. These recommendations reflect broad areas of theoretical and social science research, policy and governance, and multi- stakeholder engagement. In essence, this report sought to lay a roadmap for how India might best engage men and boys in GEWE (Gender equality and women’s empowerment). Multiple arguments were made in terms of the efficacy of this approach for achieving SDG5; however, these arguments are based largely in theory, in small pilot findings, or in limited sectors. Until now, efforts to engage men and boys in GEWE have been sporadic and limited, given relatively low priority in terms of funding and national and international support, and generally far removed from public consciousness. A more unified and collaborative effort is required to properly understand how to make design effective strategies for engaging men and boys in GEWE. 
السلام المفقود: دراسة مرحلية مستقلة حول الشباب والسلام والأمن Year of publication: 2018 Corporate author: United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) | UN. Peacebuilding Support Office (UN. PBSO) استعانت الدراسة بمنهجٍ بحثيّ شامل وتشارُكي من خلال إجراء استشارات إقليمية وشبه إقليمية ووطنية مع مجموعات من الشباب حول العالم؛ وإجراء وتلقي دراسات حالة قطُرية؛ والتكليف بعقد مناقشات جماعية مركّزة مع الشباب الذين "يصعب الوصول إليهم"؛ والاستفادة من وضع خريطة تستند إلى دراسات استقصائية في العمل الذي أجرته منظمات بناء السلام التي يقودها الشباب. وقد بُذل جهد خاص لكي تشمل الدراسة ما يتجاوز الشباب الذين يسهل الوصول إليهم والشباب النخبة، لتصل إلى الشباب الذين لا تسنح لهم الفرصة عادةً للإدلاء بآرائهم حول هذا النوع من عمليات السياسة العامة العالمية. ونظراً لما يمثّله تفاقم عدم ثقة الشباب بحكوماتهم وبالأنظمة المتعددة الأطراف من تحدٍّ، فقد كان من الضروري العمل مع منظمات المجتمع المدني ذات المصداقية التي تتمتّع بعلاقات متينة قائمة على الثقة مع الشباب على أرض الواقع. The Missing Peace: Independent Progress Study on Youth, Peace and Security Year of publication: 2018 Corporate author: United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) | UN. Peacebuilding Support Office (UN. PBSO) The process of how this study was undertaken is just as important as the outcomes it produced. The study used an inclusive and participatory research approach by undertaking regional, subregional and national consultations with young people across the globe; conducting and receiving country case studies; commissioning focus-group discussions with “hard to reach” youth; and drawing on a survey-based mapping of the work done by youth-led peacebuilding organizations. Particular effort was made to reach out beyond easily accessible and elite youth, to young people who would not ordinarily have a say in these sorts of global policy processes. Given the challenge of young people’s increasing distrust in their governments and the multilateral system, it was essential to work with credible civil society organizations with strong trust-based relationships with youth on the ground.
