This paper
attempts to address this dispute between theorists and
practitioners by analyzing each of these four claims of
gender successes at the community level, through the
perceptions of village women. Do policy and project
approaches aimed at enabling increased women’s participation
realistically contribute to the empowerment of
women in poor and disadvantaged communities?
