Abstract:
This study’s objective is to examine the social and gender footprint of large-scale electricity generation, transmission, and distribution projects to establish a foundation on which further research and replication of good practices can be built. Specific objectives were to examine key gender impact pathways of energy infrastructure projects in the affected communities, identify entry points for actions to ensure gender-equal project outcomes, and build an evidence base through primary and secondary data collection and analysis using a gender lens. In the past, such projects often considered gender dimensions marginal to the main technical work which hindered their effectiveness and sustainability. Contents:
