Research frequently points to the need to empower women to effectively combat the twin epidemics of HIV/AIDS and gender-based violence. Simultaneously, there has been increased attention given to working with men in gender equality efforts. The latter approach intervenes on masculinities as part of the fight against HIV/AIDS and violence. No research has considered these 2 lines of work side by side to address several important questions: What are the points of overlap, and the tensions and contradictions between these 2 approaches? What are the limitations and unintended consequences of each? We analyzed these 2 parallel research trends and made suggestions for how to capitalize on the synergies that come from bolstering each position with the strengths of the other.
研究经常指出,需要赋予妇女权力,以有效应对艾滋病毒/艾滋病和基于性别的暴力这双重流行病。与此同时,人们越来越关注在性别平等工作中与男子合作。后一种方法干预男性气质,作为防治艾滋病毒/艾滋病和暴力的一部分。没有研究考虑到这两条工作线并列,以解决几个重要问题:这两种方法的重叠点和紧张关系是什么?每种方法的局限性和意外后果是什么?我们分析了这两种平行的研究趋势,并就如何利用相互加强各自立场的优势来产生协同作用提出了建议。
