Man Enough? Measuring Masculine Norms to Promote Women’s Empowerment was prepared by the OECD Development Centre under the supervision of Mario Pezzini, Director of the OECD Development Centre and Special Advisor to the OECD Secretary‑General on Development, and Bathylle Missika, Head of the Networks, Partnerships and Gender Division. Led by Hyeshin Park and Gaëlle Ferrant, the report was drafted by Gaëlle Ferrant, Gabrielle Naumann-Woleske and Sarah Stummbillig. The production of the report was co‑ordinated by Gabrielle Naumann-Woleske, Policy Analyst with the Gender Programme. The report was edited by Brenda O’Hanlon. Many thanks go to the OECD Development Centre’s Publication and Communications team, Henri‑Bernard Solignac‑Lecomte, Aida Buendia, Delphine Grandrieux, Elizabeth Nash, Laura Parry‑Davies and Mélodie Descours.
The report benefited from insights from several OECD colleagues, including Pierre de Boisséson, Giacomo Gattorno, Alejandra Meneses, Hyeshin Park and Bathylle Missika, as well as Charlotte Goemans, Jenny Hedman, Elizabeth Holbourne, Seve Loudon, Cecilia Mezzanotte and Marie‑Anne Valfort. We would also like to highlight the support of Grace Dunphy and Sonja Marki.
The OECD Development Centre would also like to extend its gratitude to the experts who joined the Expert Group Meeting in February 2020 focused on “Defining and examining masculinities through the Social Institutions and Gender Index (SIGI) Framework”. The report has benefited greatly from the specific inputs of Gary Barker, Marlon Bascombe, Caroline de Cremoux, Kate Doyle, Fabrice Ferrier, Maria Lohan, Emilija Milenković, Alexander Munive, Manika Rana, Raikamal Roy, Ravi Verma and Kislay Yadav.
The OECD Development Centre is particularly grateful to the Austrian Development Agency (ADA) for its financial support and collaboration in carrying out this research within the project, “From data to policy action: addressing social institutions governing women’s and men’s behaviour to enhance gender equality”.
