Advocates of gender equality have called on fellow stakeholders not to set aside efforts to empower the boy child even as they work on projects to uplift the girl child.

During a podcast interview with Standard Group Gender desk editor Najma Ismail, the advocates also noted that more women than men are taking up empowerment opportunities offered to them and challenged men to sign up for community empowerment initiatives saying these are not just meant for women.
