This work summarizes the research results and policy implications of 27 studies on gender and development The findings in this book are grounded in empirical, quantitative evidence, but they are presented in non-technical language. The book is organized according to the following broad themes: (1) power and resources within the household; (2) agriculture and natural resources; (3) health and nutrition; (4) social capital, legal institutions, and property rights; and (5) the impact of policies and interventions. Each thematic section begins with an overview of the key messages for that theme and of the specific contribution each study makes in that area. Summaries of each study follow, with suggestions for further reading. The book should be useful to teachers, undergraduate and graduate students, and practitioners working on gender and development.
