Abstract
IMAGES is one of the most comprehensive studies ever on men’s practices and attitudes as they relate to gender norms, attitudes toward gender equality policies, household dynamics including caregiving and men’s involvement as fathers, intimate partner violence, health, and economic stress. As of 2014, it had been carried out in more than 10 countries, including Bosnia and Herzegovina, Brazil, Chile, Croatia, Democratic Republic of Congo, India, Malawi, Mali, Mexico, and Rwanda. Between 2009 and 2013, household surveys were administered to more than 16,000 men and 5,000 women, ages 18-59. Promundo and the International Center for Research on Women (ICRW) created and co-ordinate IMAGES.
