内容説明
Income-generation projects are often seen as an effective way of working with women. However, in reality, many economic enterprises fail to make a profit for their participants and simple increase women's workload and stress. Their failure is often a consequence of inaccurate conceptions about women's work and use of time. In November 1990, Oxfams Gender and Development Unit, together with the Women's Research and Resources Centre, organised a workshop for Oxfam staff based in Asia. The aim was to discuss the diverse approaches to working with women on income-generation projects in the region and to devise ways of appraising and monitoring projects, in a country programme context, which would enable them to be more successful in fulfilling their objectives of improving the overall situation of their participants. This account of the workshop includes case-studies of projects with a summary of the ensuing discussions and useful checklists for planning and evaluating projects. There is also an assessment of the lessons which emerged from the workshop.
This highlights the importance of talking and listening to women; of taking a more holistic approach, which enables women to appraise their wider situation and to articulate a gender based assessment of their needs; of viewing economic enterprise projects as a means of strengthening social organisation and empowering communities; and of supporting women in their other roles in order to enable them to participate more effectively in economic enterprises.
