Gender and social protection in the developing world: beyond mothers and safety nets

Publication - Books or book chapters - 7 March 2013
Drawing on empirical evidence from poor households and communities in Africa, Asia and Latin America, this book provides rich insight into the effects of a range of social protection instruments. It concludes that with relatively simple changes to design and with investment in implementation capacity, social protection can contribute to transforming gender relations at the individual, intrahousehold and community levels.

It will also develop a policy approach and theory of change for the inclusion of gender within peacebuilding statebuilding. This work will inform DFID’s longer-term, more detailed research on this area as well as provide the analytical basis for current policy development and immediate programming.
