This book was released on 2009 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ensuring women's economic empowerment and access to and control over resources requires an integrated approach to growth and development, focused on gender-responsive employment promotion and informed by the interdependency between economic and social development. Social objectives need to be incorporated into economic policies. Economic growth strategies should give attention to the real economy and focus on creating a gender-sensitive macroeconomic environment, full employment and decent work, access to land, property and other productive resources as well as financial services, and full coverage of social protection measures. The Survey outlines a number of concrete recommendations in these critical areas, which if adopted, will facilitate women's equitable access to and control over economic and financial resources.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trade can dramatically improve women’s lives, creating new jobs, enhancing consumer choices, and increasing women’s bargaining power in society. It can also lead to job losses and a concentration of work in low-skilled employment. Given the complexity and specificity of the relationship between trade and gender, it is essential to assess the potential impact of trade policy on both women and men and to develop appropriate, evidence-based policies to ensure that trade helps to enhance opportunities for all. Research on gender equality and trade has been constrained by limited data and a lack of understanding of the connections among the economic roles that women play as workers, consumers, and decision makers. Building on new analyses and new sex-disaggregated data, Women and Trade: The Role of Trade in Promoting Gender Equality aims to advance the understanding of the relationship between trade and gender equality and to identify a series of opportunities through which trade can improve the lives of women.

Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled "Participatory Strategies in Income Generation Programmes for Poor Women in India" Submitted by Meenakshi Sanjeev Bhatt For the degree of Master of Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong in December 2003 In this study I critically analyse the participatory strategies, systems and practices adopted in income generation programmes for poor women in western India. I also analyse the gender-informed nature of such interventions to promote participation. Finally I examine the extent to which women's participation in income generation programmes empowers them in both the private and public spheres. While the recent literature on participation is dominated by the methodological approaches to participation such as Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) within the project framework, I study home-grown and experiential approaches to promoting grassroots participation in economic programmes. This thesis is based on a study of three craft-based income generation programmes in western India and has adopted the case study methodology. The three case studies were developed using primary data collected through individual and group interviews, observation and documents. The thesis puts forward a number of key arguments. The strategy of nurturing village-level leaders from among the women artisans has succeeded in increasing their participation in the income generation programme and in establishing a cadre of grassroots leaders for sustainable participation. Village-level leaders represent the artisans and uphold their interests against rival agendas of those powerful within the village, the programme personnel, and the supporting non-governmental development organisation (NGDO). However, they may also emerge as the new locus of power and control within the organisation and the village. The formation of spearhead or management teams with a majority of women artisans has not only increased their managerial control over economic activity, but has strengthened their bargaining position vis-a-vis the organisation and programme personnel. However, organisational commitment to participation needs to permeate organisational ethos, culture, and attitude and beliefs of the programme personnel for participatory strategies and systems to be effective. The thesis demonstrates that despite criticism of planned participation, institutionalisation of participation in the everyday operations of the income generation programme and within the NGDO both motivates and necessitates their participation. Apart from institutionalisation of participation the organisational thrust on increasing women's mobility has contributed significantly towards increasing the role of artisans in the income generation programme and their confidence in themselves, and consequently on other dimensions of empowerment. Their status within the household has improved due to their significant contribution to household income, better perception of the self due to confidence in their own ability to contribute towards critical household expenses, and increased mobility that also gives them the freedom to make purchases for the household. However, although income generation programmes allow women to participate in economic activities, they do not address the inequitable distribution of responsibilities for household chores among male and female membe

Book excerpt: The United Nations has proclaimed the 21st century to be the century of water. In this volume, Water and Women in Past, Present and Future, scholars analyze the gendered political economy of water resource allocations and importantly, offer recommendations for viable, women-friendly solutions to address scarcity and distribution, among other issues. Contributors also explore feminist analyses of the aesthetic dimension of water and the feminine, since water is often associated with women, shown in cross-cultural examples of mythology, symbols and legends. Intersecting the fields of hydro-politics and aesthetics, this book should be of interest to policy analysts, activists, and academics.
