Social and Gender Norms Explained

Social and Gender Norms Explained

UNFPA’s Asia Pacific Regional Office has developed this video and a series of Social and Gender Norms Tip Sheets. These resources are designed to support UNFPA country offices and partners in the region to implement social and gender norm change programmes to address gender-based violence and harmful practices, including child marriage and female genital mutilation. The Tip Sheets are designed to complement UNFPA’s forthcoming global Toolkit on Transforming Gender and Social Norms. The Tip Sheets provide indicative guidance. There is no one-size-fits-all approach: each norm change intervention must be designed to address the specific behaviour and norms that are the focus of change, tailored to the communities where they occur.
