Across all our international programmes we use a gender transformative approach to improve the sexual and reproductive health and rights of all. This approach examines, questions and transforms inequitable gender norms and power dynamics into positive values that directly enhance gender equality. This, in turn, improves access to health and rights for all.
Corona is a global health crisis that affects everyone. It affects us in our daily lives and has a major impact on our individual functioning.

This leads to measures that contribute to curbing the crisis (flatten the curve), but unfortunately there are also a negative spin-offs.
Rigid gender norms have negative effects on both girls and boys, and inhibit Indonesia from fully benefiting from its economic growth potential, also known as the demographic dividend.
