Description:
This project works to build an evidence-based analysis of public perception changes on gender roles in Iraq, in order to provide programming and policy recommendations that aim to inform public policy and contribute to gender-sensitive stabilization and development. Project activities include: (1) creating a research design in collaboration with a reputable public opinion research firm; and (2) conducting 12 focus groups with demographically diverse community members in six Iraqi provinces (Anbar, Baghdad, Kirkuk, Kurdistan, Ninewa, and Salahaddin). The focus groups aim to explore citizens’ visions for the future, and what governance structures they believe may mitigate security threats, provide services, improve access to justice and consolidate social cohesion.
