Published in Studies and Family Planning, Mahesh Karra and David Canning re-estimate unwanted family planning (UFP) in India by including women who experience unwanted sterilization in their evaluation. Their approach surveys the fertility preferences of sterilized women to develop a more specific rights-based measure to determine UFP where women who are sterilized are typically excluded.

What does collaboration, solidarity, support and success look like for young feminists organizing (YFO) in Kenya? This week PC-Kenya is facilitating a photovoice debrief workshop as part of co-creating research evidence. Selected young feminists spent two weeks taking photos in their community with over 170 photographs being submitted for analysis. The photovoice sessions involved participants discussing and reflecting on how their images showcased everyday experiences for feminist work and their perception of YFO impact, social norms change, and how YFO interventions have influenced their lives. Key themes that were highlighted were feminist joy, sisterhood, achievements and struggles of YFO.
