  • Empowerment” without transformation? A critique of women empowerment without a masculinities lens in gender and agriculture literature

    Open AccessAmon Ashaba Mwiine, Margaret Najjingo Mangheni et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Sociology2026Referências: 4

    Women empowerment in pursuit of gender equality has received much attention in agriculture and development practice literature. At the same time, there is increasing realization of the need for interventions that focus on masculinities in order to ensure sustainable transformation of social/gender relations in agricultural communities. However, a review of literature on women empowerment in agriculture over the period 2010 to 2022, targeting Sub-…

  • Masculinities in a feminist pedagogy

    Open AccessAmon Ashaba Mwiine, Margaret Najjingo Mangheni et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Sociology2024Referências: 7

    Masculinities and femininities are closely interconnected with men and women farmers' everyday lives; hence critical reflection on these interconnections should be central in gender training in agriculture. While a focus on men and masculinities is crucial for sustainable transformation of deep-rooted gender norms and practices that limit the attainment of gender equality, there are insufficient empirically tested pedagogical models for this purp…

  • Unravelling and Countering Backlash

    Open AccessAmon Ashaba Mwiine, Josephine AhikireARTICLEIDS Bulletin2024

    Considerable progress has been seen in Ugandan women’s collective advocacy for their rights since independence. Notably, women activists’ efforts in the early 1990s culminated in the institutionalisation of gender equality in Uganda’s constitution and a subsequent resurgence of the women’s movement. Despite these efforts, certain egalitarian and inclusive policy reforms have been postponed, stripped of clauses that question patriarchal power, wat…

  • Ending TB means responding to socially produced vulnerabilities of all genders

    Open AccessBeate Ringwald, Amon Ashaba Mwiine et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2023

    Globally and in Africa, tuberculosis (TB) affects more men than women, as masculine norms, behaviours, and practices can increase likelihood of exposure to TB whilst undermining engagement in TB care (1). The WHO Africa region remains particularly affected, accounting for nearly a quarter (23%) of the estimated 10.6 million people who developed TB and close to a third (31%) of the 1.6 million people who died from the disease in 2021 (2), despite …

  • Tracking the trajectory of feminist advocacy in Uganda

    Amon Ashaba MwiineARTICLEAgenda2022Citada por: 1Referências: 10

    Since Uganda’s independence in 1962, feminist advocacy in Africa and Uganda, in particular, has experienced waves and critical agendas that have shaped the direction of movements and women’s rights organisations. How can we map the trajectory of feminist advocacy to understand the influence of theory, in particular African feminism(s) in Uganda? This is the central focus of this article. Literature shows how women activists in Africa took centre …

  • Beyond a Zero-Sum Game

    Open AccessRosemary Morgan, Peter Baker et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Sociology2021

    Epidemics and pandemics, like COVID-19, are not gender neutral. Much of the current work on gender, sex, and COVID-19, however, has seemed implicitly or explicitly to be attempting to demonstrate that either men or women have been hardest hit, treating differences between women and men as though it is not important to understand how each group is affected by the virus. This approach often leaves out the effect on gender and sexual minorities enti…

  • Negotiating patriarchy? Exploring the ambiguities of the narratives on “male champions” of gender equality in Uganda Parliament

    Amon Ashaba MwiineARTICLEAgenda2019Citada por: 4Referências: 5

    There is an emerging trend in which global development actors insist that gender equality programmes and initiatives must involve the participation of men, to the extent, in some cases, of calling for men and boys to empower women and girls. In Uganda, studies exist on how women gender activists have drawn on some men to speak to gender equity issues on their behalf. In some of these studies, supportive men are constituted as ‘champions of gender…

  • Poverty in Global Perspective

    Open AccessRobert Walker, Robert V Walker et al.ARTICLEJournal of Social Policy2013Citada por: 35Referências: 17

    Focussing on the psychosocial dimensions of poverty, the contention that shame lies at the 'irreducible absolutist core' of the idea of poverty is examined through qualitative research with adults and children experiencing poverty in diverse settings in seven countries: rural Uganda and India; urban China; Pakistan; South Korea and United Kingdom; and small town and urban Norway. Accounts of the lived experience of poverty were found to be very s…
