TY - JOUR PY - 2015// TI - Strategies to engage men and boys in violence prevention: a global organizational perspective JO - Violence against women A1 - Carlson, Juliana A1 - Casey, Erin A1 - Edleson, Jeffrey L. A1 - Tolman, Richard M. A1 - Walsh, Tova B. A1 - Kimball, Ericka SP - 1406 EP - 1425 VL - 21 IS - 11 N2 - This study presents descriptive findings from in-depth interviews with 29 representatives of organizations in Africa, Asia, Europe, Oceania, and North and South America that engage men and boys in preventing gender-based violence. In particular, the findings suggest that strategies are responsive to the specific cultural, economic, and contextual concerns of the local community, with nuanced messages and appropriate messengers. In addition, respondents reported key principles informing their organizational strategies to deepen men and boys' engagement. Attention is also paid to respondents' caution about the risks of framing of engagement practices as separate from both women's organizations and women and girls themselves.
