Engendering’ poverty reduction strategy papers (PRSPs): the issues and the challenges

Overview

This paper discusses the ‘engendering’ of Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers (PRSPs), and the role of organisations such as Oxfam in supporting this process, at the country level and internationally. It is based on an evaluation assessing the extent to which Oxfam Great Britain’s (GB’s) work on PRSPs has been mainstreaming perspectives on gender and diversity. The evaluation was part of a larger gender mainstreaming evaluation, demonstrating Oxfam’s strong commitment to promoting gender equality in its development work.
