At The Youth Café, we try to dive deeper and strive to understand the more nuanced image of the dynamics of masculinity’s social construct as we hear the conflicting accounts of experiences from young boys and men. We try to empower young people, inclusive of all genders and seek to comprehend the complex societal pressures and circumstances that young men face as they strive to build masculine identities. We aim to develop strategies that seek to motivate young men to cultivate non-violent, non-abusive, less dangerous versions of masculinity in favor of more life enhancing ideas to benefit Africa as a whole.
Youth Excel Releases Global Gender and Inclusion Analysis
Youth Excel aims to advance gender equality by using research, learning, and data to change systems and transform norms, shifting power differentials so that diverse youth—including youth of all genders in different age categories—influence development agendas and development decision making. In late 2020, we conducted a Global GESI Analysis through desk research to (1) compile data and identify broad trends in line with Youth Excel’s work; (2) provide recommendations for Youth Excel activities.
