Momentum Toward Equality: Results from the International Men and Gender Equality Survey (IMAGES) in Tanzania: Executive Summary

In Tanzania, the International Men and Gender Equality Survey (IMAGES) provided new data and insights to understand how men’s and women’s gendered attitudes, behaviors, and norms impact a range of well-being and development outcomes. It explored themes from sexual and reproductive health to caregiving, violence, laws and policies, and more.

The study combined an in-depth household survey conducted with over 2,000 men and women across five regions on Tanzania with qualitative research focused on understanding the gendered dynamics shaping the lives of Tanzanian adolescents and young adults. It broke new ground as the first IMAGES study – of more than 40 that had been conducted worldwide – to include adolescent respondents under the age of 18, collect time-use data, and measure both gender-related social norms and individual attitudes.
