dc.description.notes"Gender inequality remains a critical challenge and threatens to severely undermine progress<br/ >towards the new Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). On average and globally, women<br/ >only earned in 2015 what men earned almost a decade earlier and they accounted for only<br/ >18 per cent of ministers in government by 2015. However, women spend two to ten times<br/ >more time on caring for children or older persons than do men (World Bank 2012). It is also<br/ >estimated that 35 per cent of women worldwide have experienced either physical and/or<br/ >sexual intimate partner violence or sexual violence at some point in their lives.<br/ ><br/ >This continued challenge is recognised in the policies and commitments of various<br/ >development agencies. For example, the UK government's new development strategy (DFID<br/ >and HM Treasury 2015) emphasises mainstreaming the empowerment of women and girls<br/ >under its strategic objective of 'tackling extreme poverty and helping the world's most<br/ >vulnerable', also seen as linked to stability, security and opportunities for all. The SDGs also<br/ >recognise these challenges, with a stand-alone goal for gender equality (SDG 5) having<br/ >seven of its nine targets specifically addressing women's disadvantage.<br/ ><br/ >However, whilst many gender equality policies and programmes only target and work with<br/ >women and girls, compelling evidence and experience shows that engaging men and boys in<br/ >these processes is crucial for lasting change. Drawing on global evidence from the<br/ >Department for International Development (DFID)-funded EMERGE programme, this paper<br/ >explains why better engaging men and boys is crucial, the implications for reframing policy<br/ >design and implementation, and provides key recommendations for policy."en
