................. is one of the techniques to develop sensitivity about class, caste and gender inequalities.

  • A.Power dynamics
  • B.Transect walk
  • C.Power walk
  • D.Power analysis

Answer: C

The technique is the power walk.

In a power walk, participants are each given a role (a landless Dalit woman, a village headman, a male trader and so on) and stand in a line. A facilitator reads statements such as 'I can get a bank loan' or 'I can speak at the gram sabha', and those whose role allows it take a step forward. The spread at the end makes the gaps produced by class, caste and gender visible and is used to build sensitivity to them.

A transect walk is a participatory rural appraisal tool for mapping land use and resources along a line through a village. Power analysis is a broader analytical exercise, and power dynamics is the subject being examined, not a technique.
