Unraveling institutionalized gender inequality
In recent years, feminist scholarship and action has shifted its focus to the nature of institutional values and practices, and how they embody male agency, needs and interests, obstructing a gender equality agenda.

The authors also present three complementary types of changes required - gender infrastructure, organizational change and programming for institutional change
