Hello I agree with Richard on the strategy for getting male voices documented. The masculinity dimension of the discourse has become a core issue. Hearing male voices is crucial in Africa especially. We having difficulties to address gender violence because we have not involved the men in the dialogue nor have we formed a solidarity with them to recognize that this problem exists. The silence of men need to be broken now...THE TIME IS NOW....Let's be visionary about this...
I will be most willing to further discuss this approach with Richard and others so a framework could be developed....We may even want to think about a Forum for Masculinity Issues in Sustainable Development... especially Sexual and Reproductive Health.
