Research, Strategy and Leadership
GreeneWorks connects social analysis and institutional priorities to improve health and development outcomes.
- GreeneWorks convenes a Child Marriage Research Network to bring together organizations working to end child marriage and to promote a focus on girls and gender equality. The Network's inaugural working paper is Child, Early and Forced Marriage and the Control of Sexuality and Reproduction.
- Margaret Greene worked with economist Thomas Merrick to develop the business case for investing in research on adolescent access to contraception. This research was supported by the Alliance for Reproductive, Maternal and Newborn Health, the donor network.
- GreeneWorks supported Girls Not Brides (GNB) on the development of Theory of Change on Child Marriage. This tool maps out the approaches needed to address child marriage, helps social change artists understand how their work contributes to ending the practice, and forms the basis for discussions about shared indicators, among the 450+ members of GNB.
- Margaret Greene and Andrew Levack of EngenderHealth co-authored Synchronizing Gender Strategies: A Cooperative Model for Gender Transformation highlighting the need to work with both men and women to transform the gender inequalities undermining health for the Interagency Gender Working Group.
