ALIGN is a four-year project aimed at establishing a digital platform for the community of practice centred on gendered norms affecting adolescents and young adults.
A community of practice has grown around the term 'gender norms', and this community has an interest in working together to learn how gender norms change.
'We define norms as the often implicit, informal rules which people abide by, held in place (and influenced) by beliefs, behaviours and practices (and sometimes perceived rewards and sanctions) and bound into the values people and societies accept implicitly, accept reluctantly or actively contest.' - Project ALIGN, 2017
