GENDER MAINSTREAMING IN THE WORLD BANK’S AGRICULTURE AND RURAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS
Abstract
Agriculture and Rural Development (ARD) projects constitute an important part of the World Bank, to help countries with development. The focus of the World Bank in the initial years was on modernization of infrastructure in ARD projects that was identified as being conducive to the project of economic growth and funded of specific inputs such as machinery, seeds, fertilizers, irrigation facilities etc. Over the years, gender has come to be integrated in projects in the field of agriculture and rural development. However, in targeting the basic needs of the poor, the Bank did not have any specific gender component in its projects. It has also been explored that the Bank selectively chose to focus on some partial concerns that either represented unenthusiastic effort or a very scheming and use of gender to gain legitimacy for its programmes. For instance, women even though they would labour in the fields never got recognized as farmers in the project designs. Similarly the moulding of a project targeting women keeping in mind the division of labour that takes place both within and outside the house. In this context, the present research paper will explore to what extent gender mainstreaming strategy has been implemented and how has gender mainstreaming in World Bank projects helped promote equity and empowerment.
