This is the first ever global learning brief on addressing gender stereotypes through schools in developing countries, launched at the Women Deliver 2023 Conference. The brief contains emerging evidence from programmes and research from 10 cases from 11 countries that address gender stereotypes through schools. All aim to shift knowledge and attitudes about gender stereotypes among students, teachers and parents through curricula. UNGEI prepared the brief with valuable inputs from eleven members of the Partner Coalition for Ending Gender Stereotypes in Schools. Launched in September 2022, the Coalition’s objective is to build global momentum by developing a learning agenda, capturing evidence and insights from programming. We collectively believe that programming and research on this issue, if taken up at scale, can address a critical root cause of gender inequality.
