Key resource: Fronteiras Edição 11: Envolver homens e rapazes em programas de saneamento e higiene

As discussões de género em S&H centram-se geralmente nos papéis, posições ou impactos nas mulheres e raparigas. Esse enfoque é essencial para melhorar os resultados de género em Água, Saneamento e Higiene (WASH), já que é sobre as mulheres e as raparigas que recai a parte maior parte do fardo do trabalho de WASH e são, apesar disso, frequentemente excluídas da planificação, execução e monitoria das actividades comunitárias de WASH, por terem menos poder, recursos, tempo e estatuto social que seus os pares masculinos.

Key resource: Engaging men and boys in sanitation and hygiene programmes

Discussions of gender in sanitation and hygiene often focus on the roles, positions or impacts on women and girls. Such a focus is critical to improving the gendered outcomes in Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH), as women and girls bear the greatest burden of WASH work yet are often excluded from planning, delivery and monitoring community WASH activities as a result of having less power, resources, time and status than their male peers. However, current efforts to improve sanitation and change social norms may not always actively engage men and boys in the most effective way.
