Gender Planning and Development: Theory, Practice, and Training

Front Cover
Routledge, 1993 - Social Science - 285 pages
"Gender planning is not an end in itself but a means by which women, through a process of empowerment, can emancipate themselves. Ultimately, its success depends on the capacity of women's organizations to confront subordination and create successful alliances which will provide constructive support in negotiating women's needs at the level of household, civil society, the state and the global system. Gender Planning and Development provides an introduction to an issue of primary importance and constant debate. It will be essential reading for academics, practitioners, undergraduates and trainees in anthropology, development studies, women's studies and social policy."--Www.amazon.co.uk (Feb. 8, 2011).
