Revealing the Power of Gender Mainstreaming
This publication
tells the story of the profound links between gender equality and
poverty alleviation at the community level. The study examines
the how-to's and the impact of innovative gender mainstreaming
strategies of five NGOs in four African countries: Ghana-World
Vision, Kenya-Catholic Relief Services and Lutheran World Relief,
Niger-CARE, and Zambia-Heifer International. Nearly 900 women,
men, and youth from 16 rural communities were interviewed and talked
about the impact and positive changes that gender mainstreaming
brought to their lives, families, and communities. This seminal
study, which shows how gender mainstreaming can be "a driving force
for development," should be an invaluable resource for other development
organizations on the journey toward equitable development.
