In taking account of gender, development practitioners and social movement
activists are looking at disparities that exist in male and female rights, responsibilities,
and voice in community and national levels. Men and women often have different
priorities, preferences with respect to development, and be affected
differently by development projects and campaigns. To enhance effectiveness,
these considerations must be addressed in all program and campaign design and
interventions. If such considerations are not addressed thoughtfully, these
interventions can lead not only to inefficient and unsustainable results, but
may also exacerbate existing inequities. Understanding gender issues can enable
projects to take account of these and build in capacity to deal with
inequitable impacts and to ensure sustainability.
Development analysts have recognized now for several decades the need to
ensure that gender is examined and integrated into development projects.
In integrating gender into development, practitioners are responding to the
priority needs of women and men, and being aware of what benefits or adverse
effects could impact either.
