Part I presents the different conceptual frameworks within which the topic has been considered. Insights about the significance of gender factors do not easily cross the boundaries between different fields of inquiry. Faulty approaches to the topic and biases at all levels of policy-making have led to ineffective or even harmful projects. The interactive relationship between technology transfer and gender factors is explored using case studies and examples from the development literature on agriculture, health, and nutrition, as well as from feminist scholarship on Africa. Abstract / Résumé / ResumenĪbstract - This book demonstrates that the study of gender relations and the power of women is central to an evaluation of development efforts in Africa.
