- Description
- The contributors look at connections between women’s well-being and globalization, environmental conservation, land rights, access to information technology, employment, and poverty alleviation. They assess the results of gender mainstreaming, the difficulties that development agencies have translating gender rhetoric into equity in practice, and the conflicts between gender and the reassertion of indigenous cultural identities.
