Discussion
Which approach aims at addressing inequalities that exist between women and men in their social roles, relations, conditions, organisations and cultures?
Answer: A
The Gender and Development (GAD) approach addresses the inequalities between women and men in their social roles, relations, conditions, organisations and cultures. Women in Development (WID) looks at integrating women into existing development but does not question the social relations between the sexes. Patriarchy and matriarchy are systems of male or female dominance, not approaches to development.
The Gender and Development approach looks at the relations between men and women and not only at women, and so asks for changes in social structures.
