This book draws on the experience of organizations working to promote women's full participation in the development process, looking at the obstacles that stand in the way; examining gender auditing; the institutionalization of gender; integrating gender into country programmes; the process of creating a gender strategy and using gender training.
Over the past decade, organisations working on development issues have taken an increasing interest in women's needs and rights. But working on promoting awareness of women's marginalisation demands more than an equal opportunities policy. This book draws together the experience of organizations working to promote women's full participation in the development process, looking at the obstacles that stand in the way. Issues examined include gender auditing; the institutionalization of gender; the experience of a UN agency of integrating gender into its country programme; the process of creating a gender strategy and using gender training.
