We have had another year of additional research, and a commitment to the development of education. Thank you to the readers for supporting us, and special appreciation goes to the authors for continuing their passion of research within all topics concerning sexuality, gender policies, and reproductive justice. We are making sure your dedication never goes unnoticed. It is our pleasure to present Volume 6, Issue 4 of SG&P, our fourth issue of the year joining our transition into the winter season. The current issue enlightens us with five additional scholarly works, three research articles, and two review articles. Introducing “The Evaluation of Men Introduced in Midwifery in the U.K.: A Gender Perspective,” authors Masana Sannomiya, Kento Morie, Anna Kubota, and Masako Kanai-Pak explore male midwifery in the United Kingdom and the role of pilot tests involved in developing gender policies. Per our authors, “the U.K.'s Midwives Act 1902 initially restricted midwifery to women. However, the Sex Discrimination Act 1973 debates led to consideration of introducing male midwives.” Thus, the government decided to conduct pilots to assess the acceptability of male midwives and the financial implications of having chaperones with male midwives. This article breaks down the decision to permit male midwives across the United Kingdom, made in 1984, and why they withheld until results of the pilots were available. We present “Gender-Based Impacts of COVID-19 in Sub-Saharan Africa” by Helen Onyeaka, Phemelo Tamasiga, Ifeanyi Mazi, Hope Akegbe, and John Osiri. This research article delves into the lasting educational and economic impacts of COVID-19, which has disadvantaged girls on the fringes of society, and this study hones in on the education, socio-economic, and gender-specific effects of the COVID-19 pandemic within the context of sub-Saharan Africa. The research illuminates how the pandemic has influenced economic activities and the roles of teachers, parents, and students in the educational process. Within this study, the findings suggest that children from rural settings might have limited resources, and marginalized girls are substantially more likely than their male counterparts to leave school altogether and thus placing girls and women at a risk of experiencing the most severe outcomes of the pandemic. Finally, “The Role of Governance in Girl – Child Education: Insights on the Odds against Nigerian Women in Leadership” by Fisayo Fagbemi, Dorcas Oke, and Olawale Akinyele. Per our authors, “it is widely recognized that prioritizing female education is global best investment. This is because the promotion of girls' access to education is essential for increasing women formal economic opportunities as well as their participation in public decision-making.” This research article gives an understanding to the nexus between governance and women empowerment becoming central for developing new thinking and address","PeriodicalId":93372,"journal":{"name":"Sexuality, gender & policy","volume":"21 11","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135684820","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is because the promotion of girls' access to education is essential for increasing women's formal economic opportunities and their participation in public decision‐making in the long term. Thus, understanding the nexus between governance and women empowerment becomes central for developing new thinking and addressing prevailing challenges. The study, therefore, examines the impact of governance effectiveness on school enrolment, primary, female (% gross) in Nigeria between 1996 and 2020, using autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) bounds testing approach to cointegration and vector error correction mechanism (VECM) for the assessment of long‐run causality. Results show that governance effectiveness has a significant and positive effect on female primary school enrolment in the long run and in the short run. In addition, findings indicate that there exists bidirectional causality between the effectiveness of governance and female primary school enrolment, suggesting that these indicators are interconnected as they could influence each other. While it is recognized that government policies seem to have failed to redress the norms, societal values, and behaviors that contribute to the perpetuation of inequalities in education enrolment, good governance could further stimulate capacity development, thereby enhancing girl‐child education.","PeriodicalId":93372,"journal":{"name":"Sexuality, gender & policy","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135885162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
