SysteMALEtizing: Resources for Engaging Men in Sexual and Reproductive HealthPublication DateJuly 2006 SummaryThis brochure lays out key resources for working with men on issues related to sexual and reproductive health. The brochure aims to provide a framework for distinguishing among varied programmes, and illustrates the range within the framework with examples. It is an attempt to systematise what is available, and to explain some of the huge variability in existing materials.
The brochure provides guidance for how male engagement can be a lens through which communities question norms about masculinity and programmes integrate approaches to gender equity. The categories into which the materials are organised are not mutually exclusive, and some publications appear more than once. This has been done so that whatever users' primary interests are, they can find relevant resources for their work. It provides programme reviews, case studies, evaluations, policy examples, and tools for each of five substantive areas: family planning/contraception; maternal and neonatal health and fatherhood; male identities and roles; sexually transmitted infection (STI) and HIV/AIDS prevention, diagnosis, and treatment; and gender-based violence.
