Abstract:
In theory the importance of gender mainstreaming in water management has been recognized for well over a decade; in practice most water management and agriculture initiatives still fail to effectively address gender relations in their design and implementation, and most policy discussions and scientific analyses continue to approach gender and general equity challenges as a separate dimension. The
Comprehensive Assessment, with partners Both ENDS and the Gender and Water Alliance, has put together a minimum agenda to address some of the causes of slow progress and to jumpstart action on gender mainstreaming.
