This report discusses the World Bank
aided Women's Development Initiatives Project (WDIP),
under implementation in Ethiopia. The study assesses the
empowerment status of Ethiopian women in both rural and
urban areas, and evaluates the impact of participation in
WDIP on women's empowerment. Empowerment status and
impact are measured against indicators in the economic,
political, social, and psychological domains, on the
assumption that WDIP, a project designed to expand economic
opportunities, strengthen self-reliance, and build
awareness, will affect outcomes in all these spheres. WDIP
is a community-driven development project that seeks to
enhance women's empowerment and participation in
development interventions by mobilizing women at the
grassroots level and capitalizing on their potential to
support development processes. WDIP seeks to redress gender
imbalances in development opportunity by investing in
women's skills, productivity, and organizational
capacity. This report is structured as follows: section one
gives introduction. Section two outlines the objective and
conceptual framework. Section three presents research design
and methodology. Section four focuses on analysis of
women's empowerment and the determinants of
empowerment. Section five presents impact evaluation of WDIP. |
