About this title

Synopsis

This volume offers a critical review of gender mainstreaming and aims to be enabling and practical, offering ways to help identify solutions and move past dilemmas into action. Articles discuss how gender mainstreaming has been understood in different organisations; provide examples of good work, which supports the empowerment of women; and look beyond gender mainstreaming to what new possibilities exist for transformation.
