Strategies for men’s engagement and its effectiveness in improving child health and immunization—a rapid review
Introduction: Despite widespread evidence and recognition that women bear the disproportionate burden of caregiving, there are major gaps in action geared towards equalizing this burden of care between men and women especially in the context of child health and immunization. The goal of this rapid review is to identify and summarize effective and promising strategies for men's engagement in child health and immunization in low-and-middle-income c…
Effectiveness of a clinic-based counselling intervention on risk of experiencing intimate partner violence and reproductive coercion
INTRODUCTION: Despite the high rates of intimate partner violence (IPV) globally and the negative impact of IPV and reproductive coercion (RC) on reproductive and maternal health outcomes, few clinic-based interventions to address IPV and RC in clinical contexts have demonstrated effectiveness. The WHO's LIVES (Listen, Inquire, Validate, Enhance safety, Support), and the Addressing Reproductive Coercion in the Health Setting (ARCHES) intervention…

Should female community health volunteers (FCHVs) facilitate a response to gender-based violence (GBV)? A mixed methods exploratory study in Mangalsen, Nepal
As part of a multisectoral response to gender-based violence (GBV), Nepal is testing the feasibility of having female community health volunteers (FCHVs) play a formal role in identifying GBV survivors and referring them to specialised services at health facilities. This study followed 116 FHCVs in Mangalsen municipality who attended a one-day orientation on GBV. Over the following year, data were collected from knowledge and attitude assessments…
Men and Covid-19
In this commentary, the authors point out that there are important gender determinants to both men's and women's vulnerabilities to COVID-19, and call on the global health community to unpack and address these early in the COVID-19 pandemic response. They point to best practices and tools from two decades of engaging men in research and programming in the sexual and reproductive health field
Mainstreaming gender into global health programming to improve women’s health
In this paper, a case is made for mainstreaming gender into global women's health programming and policies. The potential implications of conflating "gender" with "women'" in the design and evaluation of women's health programming are first considered. HIV/AIDS case studies are then used to depict examples of (a) where gender has been well integrated and (b) where policies fall short of gender mainstreaming. Finally, practical approaches to mains…
Outcomes and Experiences of Men and Women with Partner Notification for HIV Testing in Tanzania
A growing evidence base supports expansion of partner notification in HIV testing services (HTS) in sub-Saharan Africa. In 2015, a cross-sectional study was conducted in Njombe region, Tanzania, to evaluate partner notification within facility-based HTS. Men and women newly diagnosed with HIV were enrolled as index clients and asked to list current or past sexual partners for referral to HTS. Successful partner referral was 2.5 times more likely …
