Gender Equality and Development in the Caribbean
A research project on Gender Peace and Development was started in the Caribbean in 2001 as a collaborative effort of UNESCO and the Centre for Gender and Development Studies of the University of the West Indies.
|
The objectives of the project were:
to document all work that has been done, or is being done in the Caribbean on each of these issues (gender, peace and development)
to identify what policy or actions need to be implemented to correct inequalities or imbalances in these areas, and
to find potential partners, drawn from all sectors of the society who can help to design and implement strategies to address the needs.
