Book excerpt: The challenge of nation-building, i.e., dealing with the societal and political aftermaths of conflicts and putting new governments and new social compacts into place, has occupied much international energy during the past several decades. As an art, a process, and a set of competencies, it is still very much in an ongoing learning and experimentation phase. The RAND Corporation has contributed to the emerging knowledge base in this domain through a series of studies that have looked at nation-building enterprises led by the United States and others that were led by the United Nations and have examined the experiences gained during the reconstruction of specific sectors. Our study focuses on gender and nation-building. It considers this issue from two aspects: First, it examines gender-specific impacts of conflict and post-conflict and the ways in which events in these contexts may affect men. Second, it analyzes the role of women in the nation-building process, in terms of both actual and current practices, as far as these could be measured and ascertained, and possible outcomes that might occur if these practices were to be modified.
Download or read book Voice and Agency written by Jeni Klugman and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2014-09-29 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite recent advances in important aspects of the lives of girls and women, pervasive challenges remain. These challenges reflect widespread deprivations and constraints and include epidemic levels of gender-based violence and discriminatory laws and norms that prevent women from owning property, being educated, and making meaningful decisions about their own lives--such as whether and when to marry or have children. These often violate their most basic rights and are magnified and multiplied by poverty and lack of education. This groundbreaking book distills vast data and hundreds of studies to shed new light on deprivations and constraints facing the voice and agency of women and girls worldwide, and on the associated costs for individuals, families, communities, and global development. The volume presents major new findings about the patterns of constraints and overlapping deprivations and focuses on several areas key to women s empowerment: freedom from violence, sexual and reproductive health and rights, ownership of land and housing, and voice and collective action. It highlights promising reforms and interventions from around the world and lays out an urgent agenda for governments, civil society, development agencies, and other stakeholders, including a call for greater investment in data and knowledge to benchmark progress.

Book Synopsis National Movement and Empowerment of Women by : Malabika Pande
Download or read book National Movement and Empowerment of Women written by Malabika Pande and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book seeks to explore new perspectives on political activism of women in the United Provinces in India. The relationship between levels of education and nationalist activity of women in the United Provinces is studied in detail, along with the reciprocal relationship between periods of heightened nationalist agitation and the rise in and extension of educational attainments. The social depth of the national movement, particularly its penetration into 'ordinary', middle-class, and sometimes even 'untouchable' households is also clearly visible from the many instances cited here. Another dimension of the political activism of the women in the United Provinces that is analyzed is the focus on four specific districts-namely Allahabad, Lucknow, Agra and Almora-which each represent four different regions (eastern, central, western, and northern) of the Provinces. A significant section of the book deals with the legislative and deliberative work performed by the women in the Provincial Legislative Assembly between 1937 and 1939. Contrary to the accepted idea that these women did nothing extraordinary in the Assembly, the study tries to show that their performance was quite out of the ordinary, particularly in terms of defining and defending nationalism against prejudiced attacks of their opponents and helping in formulating policies. Women members are only thirteen in number (out of a total 228), which makes their achievements all the more noteworthy. This book shows the positive nature of the participation of women in the nation-building process in the United Provinces. [Subject: India Studies, Gender Studies, Politics]

Book Synopsis Educating Women for Empowerment and Nation Building by : Women In Colleges Of Education
Download or read book Educating Women for Empowerment and Nation Building written by Women In Colleges Of Education and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-01-14 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a product of a group of very enterprising women who were engineered neither by any traditional feminist radicalism nor the usual equalitarian propaganda. Rather, their patriotic zeal appeared to have been inflamed by their concern for the overall betterment of womanhood. Their patriotic disposition is exemplified in the conference theme and the variegated coverage of issues raised in their respective chapters. The theme of the conference which midwifed this book of readings speaks volume of the chemistry of contemporary feminist thinking the need for more education for the womenfolk in order to empower them. The vexed issue of education for the girl child or woman education is an international concern. The status of the phenomenon of women's education and empowerment in the developing world as exemplified in Nigeria has assumed alarming proportions in view of the degrading circumstances of female human trafficking in which many women find themselves in many developing countries. As the authors have pointed out in their various chapters, the low status accorded the phenomenon of women's education and empowerment is accentuated by the patriarchal cultural milieu in many African countries. It will simply be pretentious to assume that these authors have come to an Eldorado in their quest for gender equalitarianism in our socio-economic milieu. There is however no doubt that some milestone has been covered by this effort and that a considerable amount of food has been provided for our thinking. That, in the first instance, is the justification for this publication. No matter the intrinsic shortcomings which may be identified in this book, it is nevertheless a "bold new venture" and an inestimable contribution to National Development by group of patriotic women and it calls for commendation by all and sundry.

Book Synopsis Women Empowerment and Socio-economic Development by : Kartick Das
Download or read book Women Empowerment and Socio-economic Development written by Kartick Das and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Empowerment of women through gainful employment is a constituent - as well as instrument - of development in any country. No country can be deemed developed if half of its population is severely disadvantaged in terms of basic needs, livelihood options, access to knowledge and political voice. A natural corollary of ensuring gender equality is the elimination of gender discrimination. Women's lack of economic empowerment not only impedes growth and poverty reduction, but also has a host of other negative impacts including less favourable education and health outcomes for children. Thus, it is extremely important to ensure that women are economically, socially and politically empowered. Effective and coordinated plans and programmes for the full implementation of women-oriented policies require a clear research-based knowledge of ground realities of the socio-economic status of women, particularly rural women. This volume is the outcome of the findings of academicians and researchers from different disciplines. The 11 papers included in this work throw light on various dimensions of women empowerment in India.

Book Synopsis Sustainable Development Goals and Human Rights by : Markus Kaltenborn
Download or read book Sustainable Development Goals and Human Rights written by Markus Kaltenborn and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-01-01 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book analyses the interplay of sustainable development and human rights from different perspectives including fight against poverty, health, gender equality, working conditions, climate change and the role of private actors. Each aspect is addressed from a more human rights-focused angle and a development-policy angle. This allows comparisons between the different approaches but also seeks to close gaps which would remain if only one perspective would be at the center of the discussions. Specifically, the book shows the strong connections between human rights and the objectives of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals adopted by the United Nations in 2015. Already the preamble of this document explicitly states that "the 17 Sustainable Development Goals ... seek to realise the human rights of all". Moreover, several goals and targets of the 2030 Agenda correspond to already existing individual human rights obligations. The contributions of this volume therefore also address how the implementation of human rights and SDGs can reinforce each other, but also point to critical shortcomings of the different approaches.

This book was released on 2018-05-31 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The economic and social imperative for women’s economic empowerment is clear. Greater gender equality boosts economic growth and leads to better development outcomes. It contributes to reducing income inequality and boosting economic diversification and, in turn, supports economic resilience. Gender equality is one of the 17 global UN Sustainable Development Goals, which provide a roadmap for ending poverty, protecting the planet, and ensuring that all people enjoy peace and prosperity. The G7 has emphasized the need for closing the gender gap. The Taormina Leaders’ Summit in 2017 renewed the emphasis on promoting women’s empowerment, which the leaders see as a crucial contribution to promoting sustainable development. In this regard, leaders committed to mainstreaming gender equality into all their policies. This is carried forward by Canada’s G7 Presidency. With growing recognition that gender equality promotes economic stability and growth, the IMF has scaled up its work in this area and is committed to continue these efforts. Work by the IMF will focus on (i) deepening its understanding of the economic benefits of women’s empowerment, both in the labor market and through more equal opportunities for boys and girls, also against the background of persistent megatrends, including in an environment of rapid technological change; (ii) integrating the analysis into Fund policy dialogue with member countries; (iii) providing customized assistance, workshops, and peer-learning courses in areas such as gender budgeting; and (iv) expanding collaboration with other international institutions on the subject to benefit from complementary areas of expertise."
