International Human Rights Day 2021: New CUSP Thoughtpiece

Advocacy Research Training

On International Human Rights Day 2021, we are delighted to share a new CUSP Collective ThoughtPiece

 

This new document is entitled “Enhancing Social Norms Programs: An invitation to rethink “scaling up” from a feminist perspective”.
We hope that this article will be of interest to, and spark debate amongst, anyone seeking to reduce violence against women and girls and to advance their sexual and reproductive health and rights, increasing the safety, security and well-being of women and girls in all their diversity, across the lifespan and around the world. 
The Community for Understanding Scale Up (CUSP) is a group of eight organizations working across several regions with robust experience in scaling gender-based social norm change methodologies in various contexts— the Center for Domestic Violence Prevention (CEDOVIP), Intervention with Microfinance for AIDS and Gender Equity (IMAGE), the Institute for Reproductive Health at Georgetown University, Center on Gender Equity and Health (GEH) – UC San Diego, Oxfam GB, Raising Voices, Salamander Trust, and Tostan. Between us, we have created the GREAT, IMAGE,
SASA!,
Stepping Stones, Tostan and We Can programs.
