Essay Topic
The United Nations’ report World’s Women 2010: Trends and Statistics identifies progress–especially in women’s
access to education and health-care–but points out that women are still a long way from achieving full equality with
men, especially in developing countries. According to the report, women are excluded from jobs with status and
power; they lack access to positions of authority in government and the private sector; they are disproportionately
affected by poor housing, poor infrastructure and natural disasters; they face restrictions in access to land and
property in most African countries and nearly half of the countries in Asia; they suffer ongoing domestic violence
(See http://unstats.un.org/unsd/demographic/products/Worldswomen/WW2010pub.htm).
Do you think that the Women in Development (WID) perspective provides a useful approach to
a) explain the durability of gender inequalities in developing countries,
b) in providing concrete solutions to close the gap between men and women? Why or why
not?
