'Gender and Governance in Rural Services' provides policy-relevant
knowledge on strategies to improve agricultural and rural service
delivery with a focus on providing more equitable access to these
services, especially for women. It focuses India, Ethiopia, and
Ghana, and focuses on two public services: agricultural extension,
as an example of an agricultural service, and on drinking water, as
an example of rural service that is not directly related to
agriculture but is of high relevance for rural women. It provides
empirical microlevel evidence on how different accountability
mechanisms for agricultural advisory services and drinking water
provision work in practice, and analyzes factors that influence the
suitability of different governance reform strategies that aim at
making service provision more gender responsive. It presents major
findings from the quantitative and qualitative research conducted
under the project in the three countries, which are analyzed in a
qualitative way to identify major patterns of accountability routes
in agricultural and rural service provision and to assess their
gender dimension. The book is intended for use by a wide audience
interested in agricultural and rural service provision, including
researchers, members of the public administration, policy makers,
and staff from nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) and
international development agencies who are involved in the design
and management of reform efforts, projects, and programs dealing
with rural service provision.
