Research report: Women and power, Mobilising around Afghanistan's Elimination of Violence Against Women Law, Anna Larson, February 2016
This case study is an output from the Women’s Voice and Leadership in Decision-Making project. This two-year (2014-16) evidence and learning project, funded by the UK Department for International Development, asks: (i) What enables women’s substantive voice and influence in decision-making processes? (ii) Does women’s presence and influence in decision-making improve outcomes for other women and advance gender equality? (iii) How can international actors better support women’s leadership and decision-making? In answering these questions, the research has examined the relationship between women’s political, social and economic power and resources, both individual and collective.
