From the “Minding the Gap” podcast series, this fascinating listen from the European Centre for Development Policy Management discusses contradictions between traditional and modern expectations of masculinities. Drawing on examples from around the world, this podcast discusses patriarchy and power imbalances and notes that progress toward gender equality is stalling in some places because younger men hold less gender-equal attitudes than the generation before them.
