The twenty-eighth issue of Enterprise Impact News features
the article "Assessing women's empowerment" by
Sarah Mosedale, EDIAIS Project Research Officer. This article
is a summary of her paper presented at the New
Directions in Impact Assessment for Development
conference and is now added to the Applications
Guidance section. As an introduction she states "Empowering
poor people (especially women) has become the stated goal of many
development interventions. Indeed it has become so widespread that
the World Bank has identified empowerment as one of an (only) three-pronged
strategy for pro-poor development. But what is meant by empowerment?
And how do we determine the extent to which it has or has not been
achieved?"
Enterprise Impact News is also available, free, by post
