| Abstract | This report summarizes the proceedings of UNICEF's Global Innocenti Seminar on "Achieving Gender Equality in Families: The Role of Males." The seminar examined how, as more women become economic providers for families, the role of males in families needs to develop new dimensions so that they can contribute to improved health and education of children, to making women's roles more equitable, and to increasing stability of families. Seminar topics included the following: (1) "Introduction: The Importance of Men in Achieving Gender Equality in Families," stressing the inadequacy of an exclusive focus on women; (2) "The Ongoing Struggle to Define Gender Equality," pointing out historical reasons that gender policy has focused on women; (3) "Gender Roles: How Do They Affect the Child?"; (4) "Social Change and the Loss of the Traditional Family"; (5)"The 'New Man': Male Caretakers and Gender Equality"; (6) "Family Life Cycles: Family, School and Adolescence"; (7) "The Media as Socializer of Gender Roles," detailing the pervasive and demeaning nature of the media; (8) "The Challenge of Programming for Gender Equality: How To Involve Males"; (9) "What Can UNICEF and Others Do?"; and (10) "Recommendations," including suggestions to focus more analysis on the roles of males, developing a life cycle approach for boys as well as girls, and adapting existing policy on gender. A writeup "Incorporating the Role of Fathers in the Situation Analysis: Cape Verde," sample workplans, and a five-item suggested reading list are included in the Appendices. (BGC) |
