Abstract
This volume presents technical materials and case studies developed by the Harvard Institute for International Development (HIID) to fill these training needs. The first section consists of four technical papers. The first introduces an overall framework for integrating women into project analysis; the others discuss substantive issues related to the analysis of women in development - women"s productivity in agricultural systems, the implications for women of technology transfer, and small-scale enterprises for women. The volume"s second section presents seven case studies of AID-funded projects in Indonesia, Tanzania, Kenya (2), the Dominican Republic, Peru, and India; these case studies are intended to serve as a basis for group discussion in the context of the case method of learning.
