  • Make the case that restrictive masculinities hinder women’s economic empowerment while also harming the well-being of men and boys
  • Underscore that tackling these restrictive masculinities has the potential to improve both women’s and men’s well-being
  • Highlight the importance of collecting data and evidence while emphasising the key role policy makers and grassroots organisations can play in facilitating gender-equitable masculine norms.
