| Summary: | This guide aims to assist extension and other community-based workers to apply a gender-responsive and participatory approach in their work with rural women and men. It should also be useful for development workers wanting to use the household as an entry-point to think about gender, livelihoods and resources in communities and within households. The guide outlines some of the key gender-linked constraints and opportunities in management of household resources. It focuses on issues of use, access and control, knowledge and decision-making related to resources important for the livelihoods of women and men. Land, water, nutrition, HIV/AIDS and labour are among the issues addressed in the guide. |
